Male or female, it doesn't matter

i like that meaning, but i don't know if you'll find a name with that meaning. Emmanuel was suggested above but that means "God with us" (my school's name was Immanuel) and Jesus is the Greek version of Joshua meaning "God saves" or "God is salvation"
Good luck in your search! And don't listen to the other responses about immaculate conceptions etc. A lot of names have religious meanings. It's better to have a name picked out for its meaning than because the parents had a dog called that (that's how my bestfriend got her name)!
I just spoke to dh, his suggestions were:
*Micah: "who is like God"
*Look up the meanings of the prophets from Isaiah onwards in the Old Testament
*And he just asked how many kids would spend their lunchtimes paying out the meanings of other peoples names?
I thought that maybe you could look up a name with a meaning like Gospel (good news) as that is how I believe all men know that God is God or the name of the book that the verse is from.

Give the baby a proper biblical name.
Lazarus- mentioned above
Hezekiah-king of Judah
Ephriam
And yes you could use Jesus as a name. But you do whats right in your heart for your baby. Cause his name is something he will have to carry for the rest of his life.

I couldn't find anything with that exact meaning... but if I were you I would check out some of the baby name websites... they give you meanings and origins for the names... and you can even type in a meaning and they'll give you the name that corresponds to it.

I don't believe a name exists with that exact meaning.
However, here is a list of names which have "God" as part of their meaning... (scroll down when you get there to see the list):

Why don't you just make up a name that doesn't exist and give it exactly that meaning, because I doubt there's a name that means that.

You mean in Hebrew? Try calling a local synagogue and asking a rabbi.

Planning on having a little "Jesus" are you?? Another immaculate conception?? Why oh why would you want to do this to your baby?? Your baby will be a "Child of God"...BUT IT WON'T BE GOD....
