Biblical names come from a variety of languages, mostly Hebrew and Greek. Biblical names can refer to a family's history or origin, a person's character, something in the particular situation or environment of the birth, or one of many other meanings.
Although names are often explained within the text of the Bible itself, some names contain subtle references to words, people, or events. Biblical names are widely used in countries where many people follow an Abrahamic religion - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – with several variations depending on the local language.
