I see, I remember this story
The OT seems full of such stories which are not very "family friendly".No wonder Jonadav is not popular, even though the meaning is good. I guess Amnon is not popular either.I seem to remember that Amnon was Tamar's halfbrother and that her "full brother" Absalon had a revenge on Amnon later? Is Absalon popular?A Scandinavian form of Absalon is Axel and this name is popular here. But I doubt that anyone but a name nerd like me would know that Axel is a form of the biblical Absalon.

*big nerd who knew for Axel*Weirdly, Amnon is rather popular O_o
Absalon (Avishalom) did kill Amnon, yup. His name is rather popular too. :)
