God names (not biblical)
Ok... I am being really lazy and I can't find my names book.
I have been thinking of names for our newest edition (I can never start too early ) and DP and I have agreed that we both like the idea of a good strong names of mythological gods. I think I really like Odin thus far, what other suggestions do you have? I don't want anything too far out or hard to get used to...
Thank you
Tanya
ETA: I am only looking for boys names... I never get a chance, so I am making the most of it ;)

Sorry, my name books are packed away in a box somewhere.
I would just google !
Sorry i dont have any suggestions for you
Good luck and rest up !

Well.... Tobias means "God is good" & is a nice strong name
(& very handsome hehe)
Of course I'm incredibly biased though :)

I was going to post a long list from this website that I found but instead I thought I would post the link for you.
Names of Gods and Godesses
-
I like Odin too! (meaning Frenzy though..lol are you sure?)
Pan and Loki are my favourites, but both unpredictable and cheeky! Youd have to be sure you'd want that! lol
Thor - thunder
Ares - Battle/war
Apollo -Apollo has been variously recognized as a god of light and the sun; truth and prophecy; archery, medicine and healing; music, poetry, and the arts; and more.
Freyr
Tyr
Ashur - sky god
not quite a God, but Tenzin is the Dali Llamas name :)
-
Ray, I have been wondering how one would pronounce Tyr?
-
Tanya - a friend of mind named her baby Tyr and she pronounces it "tear" - as in teardrop.
-
I would have thought tear as in the ones you cry, but Im not sure.
ETA: amysarah - thanks. i wans sure as the pronunciation I know comes from gaeleic tyr-na-nog, but then they say the Celts were Vikiing descendants so maybe thats where it comes from :)
-
I like that... I like it a LOT!! I always liked the way it looked as a name but never knew how it was spelt.... Another to the list!! :D
-
Bran was an Irish God of War.
-
Tanya- Jacob and Zachary are strong biblical names (or so I have been told). I also love the name Xavier. A lady in SCN in Melbourne changed the X for a Z though. I have a baby name book if u wanted to have a bo peep.
-
Thanx Bridg... I am wanting to steer clear of biblical names :redface:
I might have to take you up on that offer, if I still can't find mine!!
-
I have to say I really LOVE Odin!!!
-
-
I like Amun. Amun was one of the most prestigious and important Egyptian Gods, and at one point he was recognized as the "King of Gods". He went from being a God of Air, to being called the Creator God, then a God of Fertility, and then a Sun God as well. I figure if he could be all that then he and his name must be pretty strong ;)
I like the name Mihos too. He was an Egyptian Lion-God.
-
Tanya- Thats ok. No need to go :redface:
