26 Beautiful Christian Baby Girl Names With Their Meanings
Ruth
Perhaps the most lovely meaning offered for the girls’ name Ruth is “compassionate friend,†although other sources say “companion,†“vision of beauty†or, simply, “friend.†A strong Christian name, in the Bible Ruth was the daughter-in-law of Naomi, the devoted one who chose to follow Naomi back to Bethlehem. In modern times, parents may choose the name Ruth for a variety of reasons beyond the fact that it’s a solid Christian name, be it as baseball fans (Babe Ruth) or even as tribute to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. No matter the motivation, Ruth is a classic name that will never fully go out of style.
