Those of you who've ever heard me speak about naming babies must have heard my perennial suggestion: Tiglath Pileser (the baby's friends could call him/her Tiggy!) . Today I've discovered that not only am I in the Bible , but that I'm mentioned right next to Tiggy! In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon , and Abelbethmaachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria. --The Bible, King James Version, 2 Kings 15:29. Well, yes, my given name is a real Biblical name, too, but I knew that .
