Are questions of the form "What is the origin of name X" considered on-topic, since many of those names originated from Tanach and Shas?

In general, things are not on-topic only because their answers may have to do with Judaism. Personally, I think a better question is: "Are questions of the form 'What is the origin of name X' considered on-topic, since naming a baby is an act of Judaism?"– msh210 ModAug 8 '16 at 18:48

Some old chat: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/468?m=26986095#26986095 followed by chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/468?m=27002695#27002695 . The latter refers to even older chat: chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/468/conversation/…– msh210 ModAug 9 '16 at 14:28
