    Vespera

    Pronounced VES-per-ah

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

    Vespera is the evening star — and God set the stars in their courses. 'He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and of great power.' Vespera shines because God named her and placed her.

    Spiritual meaning

    Vespera is named and numbered by God — the evening star declaring glory, infinite understanding, the firmament's handywork shining in the appointed place.

    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.
