I need help thinking about names as we are thinking of different relatives that passed away. What would the Hebrew names be (for boy and girl) that mean 1) desire or delight; 2) bold or brave?
TIA for the help!

No idea if this is popular in any circles but this is the first name that popped into my head when you said desire-Cheftzibah? And what about Aryeh for bold for a boy, Ariella for a girl?

What about people who were bold in Tanach - like Yael, Yehudit, or Devora? Actually, pretty much all of the imahot and prophetesses had their moments of boldness.

Also - to go along with Aryeh, what about Livia?

Along the lines of "delight," you could consider Yakir or Ephraim, as in the pasuk in Yirmiyahu that he is "yeled sha'ashuim."

If you do Sefardic, Delisia/Delicia comes to mind.

Amatzya for a boy - the root of the word is 'ometz', which means brave. He appears in sefer melachim in tanach, but I can't remember who he was offhand.
