"Judas", "Jude", "Juda" are, I believe, variants of the name "Judah" which means "praised" or "praised one". undecided

People in USA n europe answer delilah as a name. It is stupid religious African Christians that avoids naming their children with such a beautiful name
Oga you can give your child any name you like, it's not against the constitution. Even if you name your child Lucifer the government won't jail you.

I am not a religious person but I got better names to give my children.

This question has been ringing in my head, the fact that she doesn't have a good record in the Bible, what other reasons people are afraid

Long story short, when you have your own daughter, just name her Delilah.

The name "Delilah" means "delicate". How did you come to conclude that the woman so named in the bible "performed" ner name in Samson's life?. undecided
Sometimes you can't judge the action of somebody by thier name.

It is because of the law of first mention in religion.

The name Delilah means delicate. If you ask me that is not a bad name for a woman. But because of her appearance and role in the Bible people dey avoid the name. Same applies to lucifer.

Same reason nobody's naming their son, Judas.

See wahala ooo..! If parents don't want to name their daughters Delilah, it's their own right not to. Try naming one of yours and see the power of names. But I trust men of nowadays, any body with that name around them will surely cause them to japå. Problems plenty, why add to yours?

Did God tell you that there is power in a name or did your Mogs fill your heads with that lie? undecided

Running an assumption that there is power in names is basically superstition.
