Luke 1:59-63
1:59 On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they wanted to name him Zechariah after his father.
1:60 But his mother replied, “No! He must be named John.”
1:61 They said to her, “But none of your relatives bears this name.”
1:62 So they made signs to the baby’s father, inquiring what he wanted to name his son.
1:63 He asked for a writing tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
