Help[Games] Re: a name in someone's family
in reply to a message by LiMeGrEeN
Cherubim.
The word cherub (cherubim is the Hebrew masculine plural) is a word borrowed from the Assyrian kirubu, from karâbu, "to be near", hence it means near ones, familiars, personal servants, bodyguards, courtiers. It was commonly used of those heavenly spirits, who closely surrounded the Majesty of God and paid Him intimate service. Hence it came to mean as much as "Angelic Spirit".
Seraphina is an ok name, but i don't think they'll be using the name Cherubina any time soon.
