We chose the name Titus 4 years ago when we were pregnant with our first child. We kept the gender a secret until delivery, and it was a little girl! We’ve been saving this name until we had our boy.
We love how strong the name is and it means “title of honor.” It’s also a name in the Bible.

I actually don’t know another Titus. So the name is not familiar, but I happened upon it as I was doing my scripture reading about a month before he was born. And the verse says….”But God, who comforts the depressed, comforted us by the coming of Titus.
??2 Corinthians? ?7:6?
?? And as we were in the middle of a pandemic, my husband and I both connected with this thought of God using our baby tocomfort us and encourage us during this heavy, difficult time that our world is going through right now. And so the name was chosen.

We Had 3 miscarriages in 9 months. When we got pregnant with Titus, we started naming him Faith so the older boys could pray for the baby with a name. We would have named the baby Faith if he was a girl. But since finding out he was a boy, we wanted to keep the same meaning as Faith. So we went with Titus. ??

It is the name of a book of the Bible. Titus was a faithful leader in the early church and Paul had charged him with training up Christians with sound doctrine so that God may be given the most glory!
