I LOVE Christian names. My sons will be Malachi and Elijah! :-) Manasess Judah I Love it is very unique. I would even choose Judah as the first name. I don't really care for the names Halleluah, she would definitely be teased, and to be honest it does seem a bit tacky. There are a lot of biblical/Christian names for girls you can choose, how about...

Ruth- book of the Bible

Esther- Book of the Bible

Angel/Angela- God's Messenger

Bethany-the House of song. And this is where Jesus ascended into Heaven after His resurrection

Bethel-The House of GOD

Deborah- great judge in the OT

Delilah

Dinah- Great female judge in the OT

Eve- obvious who she is :-)

Leah or Rachel= Wives of Jacob

Mary- Obvious again

Miriam

Michal= one who resembles God

Magdalene

Naomi- She is in the book of Ruth, I'm sorry I forgot her role it's been to long! =(

Ophrah- great Judge in the Book of Judges

Talitha- used in the Gospel of Mark. Means Great Young Woman

Zipporah

Tamara

Abiel- means My Father is God

Abigail- The Father is Joyful

Aednah (pronounced Edna) This is the feminine version of Eden as in the Garden of Eden

Amariah- Yahweh Says

Elizabeth-God of the Covenant. Also Mary's cousin

Gabriella- feminine of Gabriel as in the Angel Gabriel

Genesis- 1st book of the Bible. Also means the Beginning

Grace- A gift from GOD or God's forgiveness

Hannah- gracious gift from God

Joanna- Gift from Yahweh

Jordan- Descent. Also the river where Jesus was baptised

I like the thought you put into praising God when naming your children. As a suggestion for a girl can I recommend instead of Hallelujah perhaps Selah which loosely is "praise Him forever" Also perhaps for your son, leave the name as you have intended but just call him Judah for short, he is less likely to be picked on that way.

Manassas is the name of a city in virginia where the battle of bull run took place in the civil war. and the name is derived from Manasses. I live near there so I think thats pretty weird. and locals usually call it "Man"assass or worse things so I would definitely not name my child that. What about Jude? Also i don't care for halleluh either there are other biblical names without coming up with weird ones. Just remember that will be their names for the rest of their lives and kids can be very cruel.

I am sorry honey, but that poor little boy and girl would be teased to death. I think you wanting to add your religion to the names is a great idea. How about?

Well, Manasess is a bit much, but Judah is a cool and very meaningful name. Maybe put it the other way around.



Halleluah just does not seem appropriate for a name to me. I like Hannah though and that means high grace!

I am a christian myself and I like unique names but I have to say honestly that I don't like the boy or girl first name - I'm sorry



Judah is a better first name to me like the others said

what about these great bible names... Elijah, Elisha, Micah, Simon, Silas, Benjamin, Jaron or even just look up Hebrew names - you will find names like Asher, Brighton (I would spell it Bryton though personally and other nice unique better names)



For girls I named my daughter Talya which is Hebrew and means "Heavens Dew" but you can spell it Talia too.

Also there are better names like Hope, Hadessah, Naomi, Eliana, Liana, Delilah, Maraesha, Samara and so on



Best of luck....

Well ... if you want opinions, those names are too out there.



I'm fine with names that uphold your religious values and beliefs - names should have meaning, after all, not just appealing sounds.



But that doesn't mean that they should be outlandish choices ... your faith, after all, does not have to go to kindergarten. I can't think of a surer ticket to serious adolescent rebellion than a name like Halleluah.



Judah is a perfectly nice name, however; why not Judah Manasess?

I'm Christian but I have to say I would never name my kids that.



Manasess looks and sounds like "Man asses" which will most likely cause a LOT of teasing for him. Judah is an absolutely awesome and strong name. How about Judah as a first name?



Hallelujah is just plain tacky. How about Halle?

Naming your children after your faith is nice. It shows your dedication. Just a thought... you could go a little less full on and name them Jude and Halle. As they get older you could explain to them where their names derived from and it would still hold the same meaning. Either way, they're your kids and you can name them whatever you want. Best wishes.

What, Manny for short?



Personally I think it's a bit weird, and he'll get teased at school.



Perhaps his nickname name could be Jude? I love the name Jude. It's different without being really odd like Manasess is.
Holy Macaroni!

I feel a little iffy about the first name, because it is the name of a place where I live... but Judah is a nice name.

Son: Manasess Judha~~ Different!

Daughter: Halleluah ?~~ What is the middle name??





I find the boys name neat, and the girls name is best as a Middle name.. I live in South Texas and here it as a middle name all the time..



I honestly love the little girl (born the other week at church) named Eve Halleluah!! That is presious to me!!



I have both of mine named after the bible



Francesca Grace (grace of God she is here)

Alexander Miguel (Michael`the ark angel)



So anyone wants to pick on ya for bible names, tell them to stuff the word of GOD in their Mouths!! AMEN!!!



God Bless from my family to yours, and my husband is from Veracruz!! His Family loves my kids names!!

I'm a Pentecostal (christian!) I'm all for Christians names. They have wonderful meanings but for your daughter I think you can find a prettier name for her. (Not trying to be rude AT ALL) A good name for a girl could be Heaven spelled backwards which is Nevaeh. We all want to go there! Either way I think its your choice. We can say all that we want but at the end of the day the babies names are up to you! Hope I helped! God bless you and your family!

Whew! If you don't want to know what people think-don't ask

and when you find out what people think why be huffy? Manasess Judah is great-Halleluah not so good.

I'm Christian too, but I can't fathom why in the world you would pick those names. They're awful.





Manasess is horribly unattractive. Why not Manuel instead? Judah is passable, but Jude is better.







Halleluah? Are you kidding? Please. Jesus won't love her any less with a name like Holly.

Manasess is horrible. Judah is okay... Halleluah is also horrible, and it has nothing to do with the dislike of Christianity.

I think the names are great- unique and i have never heard of a person having them

i think that they might want to have nicknames though because if they dont they might have to spell their name for everyone which would get annoying after a while

They will work out great, but i can assure you that your son will eventually want to be called Judah when you adress him. It would just be easier on everyone involved.Good luck!

Nobody cares what a name means if it sounds weird. Plus, you give your child no choice but to be Christian. Halleluah will be changing her name as soon as she's old enough to.

I wouldn't use the word great to describe them. Strange. Unusual. Hopefully you grow up and realize you need to love your kids more than you obviously hate them. Otherwise, you would not give them names that are going to get them beat up every day on the playground.

I don't really like Manasess. And naming a child Hallelujah is just horrible.

Those names are classic. Don't you bother about what the others are saying. They're really nice names, and with very significant meanings, so if you and your spouse like the names, go ahead!

I wasn't going to say anything about christianity. I was just going to say how horrible your name choices were.



If you don't want to know what people think, then don't ask, "What do you think?"
