Names (personal, company)

English term or phrase: zealous for God

Shalom,

My wife is about to give birth!!! Though we don't know yet if it is a boy or a girl, we start looking for a name.

We have on our heart a name that would express "zealous for God" or "God's zeal" (like Phinehas was in numbers 25:11), or something like "zeal for God's house" (from psalms 69:9).
(That would probably use the root word qana or qina, right ?)

Or may be you could think about a name, either masculine or feminine, that approaches that meaning.

May you be inspired!
Todah!
