What's the biblical meaning of the name Savannah?

I saw the biblical definition in a bookstore once and love it. I just named my daughter Savannah but I can't remeber what it means! I already know the meaning about the plateau.

What's the biblical meaning of the name Savannah?
The name Savannah isn't used in the bible, ergo it doensn't have a Biblica meaning. It comes from the Taino word for a grassy plain, "zabana". It's a beautiful name ... just not Biblical.








SAVANNAH


Gender: Feminine


Usage: English


Pronounced: sa-VAN-a


Means simply "savannah" from the English word for the large grassy plain, ultimately deriving from the Taino (Native American) word zabana.
Reply:As I'm certain others have pointed out, there simply isn't one. Savannah quite literally means, well, savannah! Simply referring to a large, grassy plain and ultimately taken from the Native American -- not Hebrew LOL -- word zabana.

Any book that erroneously listed some random Biblical meaning was simply -- and clearly -- inaccurate. Certainly not worth the paper it was printed on. LOL The only actual Biblical names I can imagine you might be confusing this with would be ...





Sapphira - meaning, quite obviously, sapphire


Shiphrah - "beautiful"


Susanna(h) - commonly sited as meaning "lily," but also "rose" (in modern Hebrew) and related to the Egyptian word for "lotus." A floral name, in other words. ;)


Zibiah - "roe; deer"


Zipporah - "bird"





Hope that helps!
