Are all biblical girl names directly in the Bible?
Many are, but some are long-used biblical forms in Christian tradition. If you need strict “in-text” names, verify your shortlist.
What’s a safe strategy if I like rare biblical names?
Use a rare first name with a classic middle name (or the reverse) so the full name stays practical.
