Origin: (Biblical, Hebrew, Persian,

(English), mor'-de-ki, mor-de-ka'-I, mordekhay)
Gender: Male
I am so surprised I haven’t added
this very nice strong Biblical name before. A relatively new friend Cameron *see on list of posts* told
me that if he ever has a son in the future he would want to name him Mordecai. Mordecai
in the Bible was the cousin of Esther *see on list of posts* and
many years ago we had a Biblical drama about Esther and Mordecai at one of our
religious conventions. I like the strong meanings of this name and the whole
general look of the name is very nice.
I think Mordecai would do well in a historical fiction novel as it has a strong biblical history. If used in a historical fiction novel and dealing with sensitive topics of the past it would do well on a character thats perhaps down and out, but comes back strong. Though also it seems like it would do well in a science fiction / fantasy novel set in space as it would be interesting to have that very old name be set in the future on a character. A cute nickname could be Mordy.
