What Does The Name Eve Mean?

The name Eve comes from the first book of the Bible, Genesis, and was the name given by God to the wife of Adam, who was the first woman created. It is derived from the Hebrew verb 'haya', meaning 'to breath', and consequentially, 'to live' or 'to have life' as this the act of breathing was required for the act of living. Genesis 3:20 states that Eve was named this because she was the mother of all human life, and so the Hebrew word for mother comes from the same root. However, the name itself can be seen as meaning more than the verb 'to live' or 'life' due to a difference in the Hebrew letters used to form the two words. Because of this linguistic difference, Biblical scholars argue that just because the name was given to the mother of all life does not necessarily ensure it means 'mother of all life'. Instead, the name comes from Eve's connection to her husband Adam. Whilst his name denotes both male and female, her role was to bring the two together in order to create life. As a result her name means 'Gathering', as in gathering together the factors needed for humanity to propagate.

Eve is an English variant of the old Hebrew name Havva, which itself probably comes from the word "hayya" which means "living" or "animal." By extension and because of Eve's role as first woman in the Bible story, the name is often taken to mean "the mother of all living things." Havva eventually changed into the Latin form Eva, and then into Eve in English. Other variants of this name include Evelina and Evelyn; though Evelyn may also derive from the old Germanic name Ava (of uncertain meaning.)

The name Eve means life light.

Eve is a female name meaning "Life". It comes from the Hebrew origin. It is a biblical name.

I don't know this for a fact, but I would guess that Eve means "before".   As in Christmas "Eve," being the day before Christmas and New Year's" Eve " being the day before the new year begins.   Eve was the first woman made by God.  Therefore she was on the earth "before" all other women.  Make sense?

The name "Eve" means Mother of all and I know for a face that it is not grass who every put that
 

Be proud to be named Eve!  It is biblical and she was the first woman!
