Rebekah
Rebekah is the wife of Abraham's son Isaac, she was lovely, nurturing, and obedient. She was barren, like Sarah, and God also blessed her with child - twins - Esau and Jacob. She helped Jacob (her favored child) deceive Isaac into giving Jacob his blessing instead of firstborn Esau; Although I think it was not just because Jacob was her favorite, but also to fulfill God's prophesy that "the elder will serve the younger".So...Rebekah - nms and I don't like this spelling, either
Esau - no
Jacob - alright, nms

Rebekah...
Well, my name is Rebecca, and I like mine better.Maybe it's because what Rebekah did was a sin, and God let her die without seeing her favorite son for the last time because of it.
=/
it just isn't a happy tale from that perspective.anyway, Esau reminds me of Emu's. No clue why.Jacob is timeless, but also very popular.
