Abigail: Girls Baby Name Meaning

Abigail Baby Name

THE NAME ABIGAIL MEANS ‘MY FATHER’S JOY.’

The name comes from the Hebrew name Avigail.

Abigail was the wife of King David in the Hebrew Bible’s Book of Samuel, and is described as an intelligent, beautiful, loyal woman. It is also a surname.

As an English name, Abigail first became common after the Protestant Reformation and it was popular among the Puritans. The biblical Abigail refers to herself as a servant and beginning in the 17th century the name became a slang term for a servant, especially after the release of the play The Scornful Lady (1616), which featured a character named Abigail.

The name went out of fashion at that point, but it was revived in the 20th century.

Famous Abigails:

Abigail Pierrepont Johnson (born December 19, 196) an American billionaire businesswoman; Abigail Spears a professional US tennis player; Abigail Fillmore (1798-1853) was the First Lady of the United States from 1850 to 1853.
