Finding a Christian Baby Girl Name is a little more difficult than finding a biblical boy name. But there are some extraordinary biblical baby girl names to be seen. A Christian Baby Girl Name can hold a lot of meaning for your family and signify faith in God and His word. This list of baby girl names found in the Bible are ones with special name meanings, however, few of the baby girl names, although their definitions aren't unique, sound quite beautiful.
A few of the names are words found in the Bible, which have incredible meanings for your baby girl name. Take Selah, for instance, it is not a person's name but rather a word used in Psalms & Habukkak signifying a pause or a reflection on what has been spoken or sung. How precious is that?
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Included in our list is the biblical reference where I found each baby girl name. If you choose a biblical baby girl name, it would be pretty cool to add the scripture to the nursery wall or birth announcement. I've learned a lot about brush lettering through this brush lettering course and highly recommend this course to learn how to create fantastic work. You could get very creative with your baby's name and scripture reference. I've been using my new skills in my bullet journal and Christmas tags! Between bullet journaling, brush lettering, and creative market, I've been a highly creative momma lately. Don't forget to write out your girl name choices and try them out with your last name. We had some really stellar names chosen for a few of our babies before writing it out with our last name. Some of the baby names we decided did not go well at all. Although, if you adore a name, you could live with it sounding off a bit. Please comment and share which names you love and which you don't love as well. It helps with our list building!
