A Name's Meaning

In William Shakespeare’s 1594 play, Juliet mused “What’s in a name?”  But in Shakespeare's personal reflection on the subject, he said, “He who steals my purse, steals trash, but he that filches from me my good name robs me of that which enriches him not, and makes me poor indeed.

Your Name communicates so much more than simply a tag or label of what to call you.  Your name becomes the representation of who you are; who you are to your family, to your boss, to your friends, to your children, to the businessman in the office or the waitress at your table.  Your name establishes the beginning of a reputation, and the whole of that reputation is recalled by the thought or speaking of your name.

Throughout history, names have been of great importance.  Adam, the first man, was given the task of naming all the animals, and was the only man ever to have the honor of choosing a name for his wife, Eve.  Although we still love to choose special nicknames for our spouses, and those names carry great significance between a husband and wife.  Nicknames for children become as endearing as deeply engrained as the first time a parent hears "Mama" or "Daddy".  And it is for that very reason that we must wisely consider what names we give to one another, and what names we choose for our children.

God placed tremendous significance on names, and the meanings of them, starting with the creation of Adam, "One formed of the earth", following to the naming of his own Son, Jesus.  When the Angel of God appeared to Joseph in a dream, he came with a very specific message about the meaning of a name.

"And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins."  Matthew 1.21

The name Jesus -or, "Yeshua" in the Hebrew was the same word as SALVATION.  Can you see how God chose a name that directly described the life purpose for His son?  "call his name, JESUS, "Salvation": for he will SAVE his people from their sins."

And God's emphasis on the meaning of names didn't stop there.  There continues to be incredible importance placed in the meaning of names, from the parents who name their newborn, to the couples who make up sweet nicknames for eachother, to the names chosen for new businesses, to God's careful guidance of your life to develop and discover the meaning of your name.

Find out what your name means by giving us a call or sending us a note.  Thank you for visiting our site for Christian Name Meaning Gifts, www.Meaning.Name.  Be sure to see our beautiful selection of dozens of full-color name designs for our NamePlaques.
