need help for a character name

Postby rocklobster » Fri Feb 06, 2009 6:42 pm

I'm throwing around an idea to do a story that will be a series of letters between angels about how best to guide a human. Here's my problem: I need a name that means "to soar" in Hebrew. Any ideas where I can look online?

just do a google search for baby names, a few websites let you do searches based on origin or meaning. :)

Thanks for the help anyone. I wanted a Hebrew name since the Old Testament was written in Hebrew and it just felt appropriate somehow. I don't know why, but I always want names to match the character in some way. I can never bring myself to name a character just some ordinary name.

Try 'A World of Baby Names', book that has hebrew names.

"Gozol" is Hebrew boy's name that means "soaring bird."

The name that you are looking for is "Udeh", it means to praise or to fly....that's just about as close as you will get.
