So the other day I was doing some
bible reading and one of the hundreds of Hebrew biblical names I read in the
book of Joshua was this name Aijalon. This wound up being one of the only ones
I could properly pronounce and one of the only ones I really liked the look of.
The meanings are really great and the name itself looks modern but is also
ancient so it’s a plus for different genres and eras.
However because of the look I am
sure many people would think it was a made up name rather than an old biblical
name. I’ve showed an old name like this and asked about it on Yahoo Answers
many years ago and a few people said it was a white trash made up name by some
teenage mother, which was so stupid given the long varied use of that particular
name. So many people reason that they know everything about names and none of
us do. Names are so varied between cultures that a name we think is made up
could very well be thousands of years old. So I often get upset when people
down a name they have no idea about. Sorry I’ve gotten off on a bit of a rant,
lol!
Anyway this seems a nice strong
older name that I like a great deal.
