Comments for the name Hosanna

Comments for HOSANNA:

I think that pronouncing Hosanna as the given pronouciation Ho-ZAN-ah is rather unattractive. I prefer Ho-SAHN-ah.

I was really suprised when I learned this was actually a name, because when we went to church when I was a little kid and we sang songs with the phrase "sing Hosanna" in them I always thought it was talking to someone named Hosanna and when I asked my parents who she was they just laughed. I really like this name! I would consider using it. It's so beautiful!

Interesting. I'm just not sure it's a good idea to put "Ho" in a girl's name.

äåùòðà is the Hebrew Script of Hosanna, meaning 'G-d save us.' [noted -ed]

It wasn't actually exclaimed by Jesus, but by the crowd that greeted him in Matthew chapter 21 (the "Triumphal Entry").

The Hebrew word originated as a prayer but by the New Testament times it had become an exclamation of praise. [noted -ed]

If my name was Hosanna, I would be quite annoyed. At school we have to sing hymns and one of them is called 'Hosanna'. Imagine singing that every day with the name of Hosanna?
