    Romilly

    Pronounced ROM-ih-lee

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Romilly does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "From Rome; Citizen", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Romilly.
    Meaning
    "From Rome; Citizen"
    Origin
    French/English

    Romilly connects to Rome — where Paul wrote his most theological letter and where the early church took root in the empire's capital. 'Our citizenship is in heaven.' Romilly carries the dual identity of earthly and heavenly citizenship.

    Spiritual meaning

    Romilly bridges two citizenships — living on earth while belonging to heaven, preaching the kingdom with all confidence.

    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.
