Comments for SHEM:
I know a guy called Shem and when I first heard it, thought he must be teased mercilessly but he's such a fun, good-looking, popular person everyone seems to love him. Only name your son this if you think he could pull it off!-- Anonymous User 7/19/2006
Shem was not the eldest son of Noah, Japheth was older. (Genesis 10:21)-- promise 9/12/2006
The above poster was wrong, Genesis 10:21 says "To Shem also, Japheth's older brother and ancestor of all the children of Eber, sons were born".-- YMPvt 3/17/2007
The book Many Waters by Madeleine L'Engle is a retelling of the flood story. In it, Shem is a hunter, and kind, but not talkative. His wife's name is Elisheba.-- Aqua 4/6/2007
I hate to say it, but Noah couldn't have come up with a better name for his kid? Can you imagine his wife saying, "What should we name him?" and Noah responding, "Uh... Name?"?-- Atarah Derek 7/11/2007
Shem was not the eldest son of Noah - he was the middle child. (Genesis 10:21 - "Sons were also born to Shem, whose older brother was Japheth.")-- smalltown268 3/30/2010
A name meaning name, how beautiful a notion.-- Rhona J 4/8/2011
