Re: Atheists giving their kids Biblical names
I think the Biblical association really only applies according to the level of obscurity. I mean, sure, there are parents who name their kid Sarah because of "the Sarah" but there are people who don't. That said, I doubt there is anyone naming their kid Zadok or Genesis without wanting a Biblical connection.
I would even go as far to say that people can use some obscure BIble names (Asa, Damaris, Ebenezer) without knowing or caring about the Biblical connection. Most "Bible" names are first and foremost Hebrew, Persian, Roman, etc.______________________________________________
