What Do You Think of the Name Jezabel?

If you ever look up the meaning of the
name jezabel in baby books it always has
something meaning decietful or something.
I love the name but I would want her to
be stuck with that meaning. What do you
guys think? Too risky?

Jezebel

Friend,
bible theologians have discussed that
jezebel means 'the daughter of confusion'.
Unfortunately, she had a sad, horrible
way of life. The book of revelation also
links her with adultery, sorrow and
judgement. You may like the name but it
won't be worth the risk naming yr baby
such. Please get a new name.

I love the name jezabel.... One of my
puppies names is jezabel, spelt...
Gezzabelle. She gets called bella, whick
I also love, I think its sweet when
shortened and classic when full. Does the
meaning worry u heaps? Maybe try another
name with the same synonoms, like --bel,

I think that names do affect to a degree
your personality. I also believe that
certain names carry a certain spiritual
power with them. While I actually agree
with you as far as thinking it's a pretty
name I wouldn't name my kid that, it would
be like naming a boy lucifer or something.
I would let it alone and get a new name.

Oh! I went to school (in mexico) with a
girl whose name is yetzabel and I always
thought it sounded like a nice name even
thought of naming my baby girl that until
I read somewhere in the bible that she was
a prostitute and then I changed my mind.
I guess to me it does matter what the name
means.
It's up to you to decide whether you like
the name and the meaning.

The jezebel spirit is the spirit that "can
if possible" lead the true prophets and
true men of .God away from the truth. It
is a witchcraft demon, and it is contrary
to anything good, godly, pure, lovely,
truthful. She would entice, if you will;
these men to go into a strange woman,
"follow other gods" and not the true .God
of heaven. I would never name a child
that--i do also believe that names can
carry with them spiritual power, negative
or positive.

I know a song entitled "jezabel" too, only
it's not very well-known. It also speaks
of a woman who goes and plays guys' hearts
for fun.

Jezebel sounds so fun, energetic, and
beautiful to me. I actually looked up
jezebel in the bible. It says that she
ranks as one of the most evil women in the
bible. I would not name my child hitler
or lucifer. I'm sad that name has
already been tampered with. Maybe I can
use it as a middle name and spell it
differently?

I don't know if changing the spelling will
change the meaning. At least .I don't
think it will in people's minds. But
it's up to you.
When .I thought that .I might have a girl
one of the names that .I was tossing
around was .Mayeilin (pronounced
my-ay-leen with the accent on the last
syllable). I thought that .I had made it
up. I decided to google it to see if .I
could find anyone else with the same name
and it turns out that it appears in some
ancient esoteric book about angels and
demons. Needless to say, .I'm not using
that name... It's really up to you
though. If you think it's worth it, or
you think that the spelling will change
the meaning, go for it. I personally
just wouldn't.

I think its a really cute name :] I also
believe that you judge the person on there
personality not looks,name,fashion
sense,music taste or religion.This oh no
you cant have that name because of the
meaning is v. Old fashioned.I go to
school with someone called jezabell and
shes popular and most of the people dont
know the history in the name.Lol.

You can't deny that most people are
influenced by names. No one's saying
that someone wouldn't be able to get past
that but come on. If you're a
prospective employer and you've got a pile
of resumes in front of you and one is for
a laquesha shaniqua chardonne jackson are
you going to take it seriously? I have a
friend with a similar name and although
she is extremely qualified in her field it
took her three years of job hunting to get
her current job. People are influenced by
and prejudiced against names.
Another thing kids are cruel. I know a
kid named adolf. All his life he's been
taunted with hitler jokes. If you're
even remotely religious and you take your
kid to sunday school what do you think is
going to happen when they get around to
the lesson on jezebel? It's like a joke
name, i've heard people saying that some
girl is a jezebel. In literature certain
women were called jezebels. It seems
like a heck of a lot for a kid to live
down...
