“And it came to passe that on the eight day they came to circumcise the childe, and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.”
1611 King James Version (KJV)
Lu 1:59 On the eighth day. On the eighth day male Jewish children were circumcised and named (Ge 17:12). The kinsmen present called the child after his father's name, a common Jewish custom, but Elizabeth protested that his name should be John, that given by the angel. The matter was referred to the father.
