[quote="amother"]How about the name Mattan?[/quote]
That is like "given", a gift from Hashem, very common in Israel

I have a Nerya, "light of Hashem" which is from the tanach (Baruch ben Nerya was a scribe) to which we added the middle name Meir because he was so "full of light" when he was born (no, not our first or last son, just special)

My great-grandfather a"h was Reuel; his father-in-law was Ariel and his father was Aholiab (also spelled "Aholiav" - "tent of the father" - and one of the artists of the Mishkan).

We have a Menashe...Everyone who hears his name say "oh, you must've named the other twin Ephraim!"
Uh, no. We had Menashe before we had the twins.
We do occasionally hear of a Menashe, but overall it isn't a very common name.

I quite like the name Gideon but don't know who he was or many people called that (which is fine). unless he wasn't anyone and it just means something.
anyone know?
