If Moses is a pleasing starbaby choice, why not this name worn by his stepmama?

Thanks to Samantha for suggesting Bethia as Baby Name of the Day.

Even if you’ve never read a word of the Old Testament, you’re probably dimly aware of baby Moses floating to safety in his basket after the pharaoh ordered all male Hebrew children killed.

  1. My daughter’s is name is Bethia, because of the good meaning it carries we decided to name her that name, she also loves so much.

  2. I have 3 aunt Bethia’s (great-aunt, cousin and father’s sister) and named my daughter Bethia. At fifteen, she is not so fond of her “unusual” name, but I hope it will carry on through the family.
