Habacuc is a masculine name of Hebrew origin with multiple possible meanings. Traditionally spelled Habakkuk, this name can come from the Hebrew word khavák or chavaq, meaning “embrace.” This can be a lovely way to remind baby that they always have a welcome place in your arms. Habacuc may also mean “basil” or “mint,” connecting baby to two types of lush, aromatic leaves to connect them to nature.
