Turns out my biblical name is the same as my temple name - Abigail Either Facebook is psychic or the church is true. Maybe both.

Does yours match?

Davidah Naomi Ruth is my actual Hebrew name.

After taking the quizzie here, I too got Mary Magdalene. But it's a very generalized quiz, and it doesn't really do me justice.

Whereas my Hebrew name descriptives does come closer to who I am as a person.

Like bona dea below, I have a sister named Merrie, (long ago deceased,) but no relative named Magdalene I'm aware of.

And being Hebrew through my mum's side of the family, the biblical names on the Jewish side that go back a long ways, are sprinkled with OT names here and there like Abraham, Moses, Isaac, Sarah, Rivkah (for Rebecca,) etc.

I am Mary Magdalene. Interesting because my mother was Mary and my grandma was Magdalena

I WISH!

According to that survey, I got Abigail! I like that name.


Eunice was a really tough one to allow to roll off my tongue. I had to do a lot of research to come to terms with it. In the process, I learned that I had relatives with the name Eunice, and they were pretty cool. So, I learned to tolerate the name.


Then, as I realized the fraud of Mormonism, I kind of lamented that my 'spiritual' name was so 'assigned' and non-original. Yet, I was relieved to realize that I wouldn't be standing, waiting for my husband to remember the name he'd long ago forgotten! And, I didn't have to worry that some abusive 'worthy' man had inherited me after all was said and done.

I am Joshua by the quiz results. Temple name was Isaac. They don't match so church must not be true. Just as I know it to be a lie. Fun little quiz.

Joshua. "You like to serve. You value learning and respect others. You show tremendous courage and leadership, despite the huge responsibilities piling up on you. You prosper because you trust God with every aspect of your life. You Are Joshua!"

The biblical name I got is Ruth which, surprisingly, is also my favorite biblical character. :)

Abigail: Little is known about you, but you are a beautiful woman of strength, courage, intelligence, integrity and wisdom. You understand your place, and act with decisiveness. You are the source of wisdom and reason in your household.

I like the flattery, lol.

Given my druthers...I'd chose Eeyore....never got to the temple to get all that mumbo jumbo cult bullshit conferred on me.

I got Joseph. First Elias in the temple and now this. I need something a little more exotic. I was really hoping for Jezebel.
