What do you think of this name???

i think its a cute name and the meaning for it is: Means "house of figs" in Hebrew, from a biblical place name. In the New Testament Bethany was the town where Lazarus lived.

I love it, thats my first daughter's name and I love it so much I considered naming my second the same, just joking I did say I would though, instead my second's is Trinity Faith. Bethany means God's messenger. I think, I'm pretty sure. You can go to babysnames.com and it will say. NOBODY calls her Beth. I got this meaning out of one of those little names books at the walmart check out.

Also since names tell you alot about the personality, she is very sweet and caring for everyone. Very gentle w/ infants and pets. Loves to pray, dance, and sing. She is almost three and she is like the perfect kid for anyone. Our second totally different!

I think it's a very cute name. but it's up to the parents to decide. The question is do YOU like it? =)

Bethany was a New Testament village near Jerusalem where Jesus visited Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Frequently used as a first name in the 20th century.

Another meaning is also "House of Figs"

Bethany is a nice name. It means "house of figs" in Hebrew, from a biblical place name. In the New Testament Bethany was the town where Lazarus lived.

Well I looked it up and it said Beth meant an oath of god, and bethany meant place of figs: near jeruselem. It's a good name uncommon which is good seeing how there was a hurricane the same name i chose for my daughter and name boom of Emily i still choose it though because of family value and sheer love of the name oh by her middle name is grace which is pretty popular too. Choose something you love and stick with it. We also loved the names hannah, evelyn , adeline, liliana and cadence. Just to give you a few other choices

I have always liked this name. I only knew one Bethany growing up. But That person and all the other Bethany's that I've heard about were nice and the name was always a good memory for me.

My name is Beth -- and I have never liked my name much. But, I like Bethany okay. I guess it is kind of pretty. I like Sarabeth. I think that is a cool name. Beth alone is too short (monosyllabic). And when I was young my first, middle, and last names had only one syllable each....and I hated it.

Names are so hard. I think Beth means House of God.

If you want your child to reminded of an neighborhoor or a circumference for the opeing of many things. The actual meaning the word Bethany is a place on east Jordan River and the place of Lazarus.

My sisters name is Bethani its not very common and it is spelled different let me look up the meaning really fast if your a christian like my mother it could b biblical or it means "house of figs"

It refers to the name of a Biblical town, which means something to do with figs. I like it.
