for the few decades i have spent on earth,i have met lots of people mostly proclaimers of the christian faith be it catholic,anglican,protestant,pentecostal etc.but something i have noticed is that no one ever bears the name "Job" is it that he wasn't a faithful man,offcourse we know he was a faithful man,a man who God above had immense confidence,a man who displayed virtues such as humility,perseverance,endurance,intergrity and love.Job was a greatman who showed that even if you lose everything it is still possible to put faith in your god.people call thier children david,paul,peter,abraham,yes those men were also faithful men but were they as faithful as job,okay if fate is the issue,i have heard someone call his child cain,we know very well about cains history,the first murderer.job was a man who detested sin and sacrificed animals to God incase if his children sinned unknowingly,this man was truly a greatman,and God saw that and that was why even after his travails,he still blessed him again.I strongly think that calling our boys could be a possitive influence for them.over to you friends,is there something about Job that i dont know,am willing to learn.thank you

And how do you know people don't answer Job? It's not as common as other names but people certainly answer Job. The names I don't feel people should answer are such names as Rachel, Samson because they didn't have a good end and Jacob because it means supplanter or conman, instead of Jacob name the child Israel.

Christians bear the name Job. Haven't you heard of Bishop Alaba Job?

Hashahahah?!
