    Quentin

    Pronounced KWEN-tin

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

    Quentin is the fifth — and the number five in Scripture often represents grace (five loaves fed five thousand). 'And he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake.' Quentin is abundance from scarcity through grace.

    Spiritual meaning

    Quentin is five-fold grace — five loaves multiplied, Benjamin's five-fold portion, scarcity becoming abundance in God's hands.

    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.
