OP Eve's name, appearing in the Bible only five times, according to an article I just read.
I wonder how it is pronounced in Hebrew? As always, I do wish we still used original names though I understand why it is too much against the tide to do so. One site gives her name as HawwAh, but I can't find any reason for capitalizing the second 'a'. I like Hawwah over Eve because it sounds more ancient to my ear. It means something like 'giver of life' or 'mother of all life.'
