'Name' in the Bible
So Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron (the name of Hebron formerly was Kiriath-arba); and they defeated Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai.
From there [the tribe of] Judah went against the inhabitants of Debir (the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher [city of books and scribes]).
The house of Joseph spied out Bethel (now the name of the city was formerly Luz).
The man went into the land of the Hittites and built a city and named it Luz, which is its name to this day.
And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was infertile and had no children.
Then the woman went and told her husband, saying, “A Man of God came to me and his appearance was like the appearance of the Angel of God, very awesome. I did not ask Him where he came from, and he did not tell me his name.
Manoah said to the Angel of the Lord, “What is your name, so that when your words come true, we may honor you?”
But the Angel of the Lord said to him, “Why do you ask my name, seeing it is wonderful (miraculous)?”
So the woman [in due time] gave birth to a son and named him Samson; and the boy grew and the Lord blessed him.
So God split open the hollow place that was at Lehi, and water came out of it. When Samson drank, his spirit (strength) returned and he was revived. Therefore he named it En-hakkore (spring which is calling), which is at Lehi to this day.
After this he fell in love with a [Philistine] woman [living] in the Valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.
They named the city Dan, after Dan their forefather who was born to Israel (Jacob); however, the original name of the city was Laish.
