I don't enjoy many male biblical names, except the thoroughly acclimatised ones: David, Peter, Daniel, James and John.
Abel - to do what? More like a word than a name.
Isaac - love the bizarre spelling! My friend's Isaac husband is always called Icky, which is enough to put anyone off. Nice man, though.
Jonah - a victim of his story: whales all the way. Joseph is a better way to achieve a son known as Joe.
Seth - I really like it! Never met one, would never use it, but it's unusual in a good way.
Ella could and should be a nickname. Same goes for Bella.
Enid I actually like. Classic but refreshingly underused.
Maya has pronunciation issues: May to rhyme with Day or with Try. I could appreciate May as a mn, but Maya not at all.
