Meirav is an ancient and impressive Hebrew name carrying profound meanings of abundance, greatness, and prominence. The name is composed of two elements: "mi" meaning "who" or "from whom," and "rav" meaning "much," "many," "great," or "principal." The literal meaning of the name is "the most," "the majority," "the main part," or "the greatest portion," expressing the concept of abundance, wealth, and central status. In the Bible, Meirav is a significant historical figure - the eldest daughter of Saul, the first king of Israel. Meirav's story is closely connected to the story of King David. Saul promised Meirav to David as a wife in return for his bravery in battle against the Philistines, but ultimately gave her to someone else - to Adriel the Meholathite. This story teaches about the complexity of royal family relationships and the tensions that existed between Saul and David. Although Meirav herself did not receive detailed description in the Bible, her name carried the significance of high status, prestige, and royalty. The name also bears the legacy of being the daughter of the first king, which gives it a dimension of history and power. In modern Hebrew culture, Meirav became particularly popular from the 1970s and 1980s onward. The name expresses ambition, excellence, and a desire to be at the center and forefront. Women named Meirav are often perceived as having strong, determined personalities with natural leadership abilities. The name carries a sense of self-confidence, inner strength, and the ability to influence. The name can also be written in defective spelling - "Merav" - a variation that is equally common and maintains the same meaning and sound. Meirav is especially suitable for parents seeking a name with deep biblical roots, a positive meaning of abundance and greatness, and an authentic, strong Hebrew sound. It is a name that combines ancient history with modern relevance, giving its bearer a sense of uniqueness, honor, and power.
