If you want baby to have the gift of Gab, there's no better choice than—you guessed it—Gab! This gender-neutral name can be short for Gabriel, Gabrielle, or the Hebrew form Gavriel. It means "hero of God" or "God is my strength." In the Hebrew Bible, Gabriel is one of seven archangels sent to give Mary the news of her pregnancy with Jesus. Baby can pull strength and courage from Mary's story as they set a course for their future. Perhaps your Gab's gift will be their words of wisdom and angel-soft kisses!
