Could someone please tell me if the name 'Nathanjah' is male or female?

Thank you. I know Nathan is a male name, but the 'jah' behind it confused me as sometimes male names become female names when a few letters are added.

I know Nathan is a male name, so the -jah could be making it into a female name perhaps? But then again, I actually don't know:)

That was my idea at first as well, but I am getting doubts. It seems fairly biblical. Perhaps I better search the web a bit better.

In my head I pronounce the j as an i, and that makes it female to me.

I would say female.

Nobody seems to know for sure...
