8. Ethan

The popular name Ethan is derived from the Hebrew name Eitan. It means 'strong' and 'firm.' Ethan appears in the Bible as the name given to a wise man from Ezrahite, who is thought to have written Psalm 89. Ethan first became reasonably common in America because of the well-known revolutionary Ethan Allen (1738-1789). However, it didn't become popular until the 20th century.
