Mentioned in the Bible by name

Tabitha, Dorcas

In Joppa [present-day Jaffa on the Mediterranean coast] there lived a disciple [literally: 'female disciple' – Gk. mathetria] whose [Aramaic] name was Tabitha, translated [into Greek] as Dorcas [meaning gazelle, an animal with beautiful eyes and symbolizing beauty when used as a human name]. She was constantly engaged in good deeds and was very generous (gave generously to help the poor).

Peter got up and went with them immediately. When he arrived, they took him upstairs. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing him all the tunics and other clothes that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.

Peter sent everyone out of the room, fell on his knees, and prayed. Then he turned to the dead woman and said, "Tabitha, get up."
She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
