I just stumbled across this name, and I love it! It's a masculine, Biblical name. I love the way it sounds. =) Wdyt? Do you think it's usable today? Do you have any MN suggestions for Amittai?

A little late, but I wanted top respond, since this name is on my favorites list, especially as part of the combo Ishmael Amittai. I love the sound and the meaning, I think it's a fantastic, underused name, definitely usable...sure it's a little "out there" but with the trend towards using old fashioned biblical male names, I think this could fit right in, while still standing out as different and, in my opinion, quietly cool.

As for combos, I'm so stuck on Ishmael Amittai, it's hard for me to think up something else that sounds as good to me, so why not Amittai Ishmael ;)

Wdyt? I like it! I LOVE the meaning

Do you think it's usable today? Yes! it's a nice elgit name, even though it's unusual. Older unused biblical names should be used.

Do you have any MN suggestions for Amittai?

How about something biblical?

Thanks! Amittai & Gamaliel is sounding like a good sibset to me right now. I love unusual Biblical names. =)

I like Amittai Lazarus, Amittai Phinehas, and Amittai Jonah.
