Short versions of biblical boy names
My husband and I want to choose a biblical (inspired) name, that is less popular.
But we also like short mainly 2 syllable names.
We named our son Tobin instead of Tobias, and that’s the vibe we are looking for for our second son.
Names we like but are 2 long for us are:
- Ezekiel
- Michael
- Malachi
- Matthew
- Obadiah
- Solomon
- Zachariah
Names we like but are too popular for us are:
- Ezra
- Elias
- Jacob
- Joel
- Levi
- Noah
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 😊

Aww we have a Zeke (short for Ezekiel). Some of these might work well with Tobin, although a few longer than 2 syllables: Elijah (Eli) Jethro Raphael (Raph/Raphy) Barnaby Asher or Asa Silas Judah or Jude
My favourites are Boaz and Ozias
