    Aurelia

    Pronounced aw-REE-lee-ah

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Aurelia does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Golden; Radiant", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Aurelia.
    Meaning
    "Golden; Radiant"
    Origin
    Latin

    Aurelia comes from the Latin 'aureus,' meaning 'golden.' In Scripture, gold represents purity, divine nature, and things of eternal value. The name evokes the radiant glory of God and the refined faith that emerges through trials, described as 'more precious than gold' in 1 Peter.

    Spiritual meaning

    Aurelia reflects the radiant beauty of a faith refined through trials — shining like gold that has been purified by fire.

    Related verses (KJV)

    • "That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory."

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
