Barnabas

For the baby you might want to bring up in faith, we have a name for you that you might consider. The Greek boy’s name Barnabas means “son of encouragement.” In the bible, Barnabas was a disciple known for his mentoring and support. He was originally named Joseph but received the nickname Barnabas for his notable encouragement to others. This was shown when Barnabas recommended Paul to the apostles when no one else trusted him. Maybe your little one will take inspiration and be a source of encouragement to others in their life as they grow older.
