Thinking about the name
Mathew
Hebrew origin
“An alternate English spelling of Matthew, derived from the Hebrew Mattityahu meaning 'gift of God.' Mathew represents a common American and English variant that emerged during the 19th and 20th centuries, offering a slightly less formal alternative to the traditional 'Matthew' while maintaining full biblical authenticity.”
