Modern Christian Baby Names

These names step away from traditional biblical and saints' names, and draw on Christian symbols and concepts. They include meaningful word names like Amen and Hosanna, and place names from the Bible, like Jericho and Galilee. Some are more subtle and can also be secular, like River and Shepherd. Many of these names are unisex, and many have only been in use since the end of the twentieth century or even later, which gives them a fresh and lesser-known feel. We've also added a few more established names with a particularly evangelical flavor.
