WILL WE GET A NEW NAME IN HEAVEN?

There are at least four verses in the Bible that speak of receiving a new name in Heaven (Rev 2:17)(Rev 3:12)(Isa 62:2)(Isa 65:15).

 In addition, we have a number of examples of people in the Bible who were given new names by God:

Abram to Abraham (Gen 17:5)
Sarai to Sarah (Gen 17:15)
Jacob to Israel (Gen 32:27-28)(Gen 35:10)
Simon to Peter (Mt 16:17-18)
Lucifer’s (Isa 14:12) name was changed to Satan.

Isaiah 62:2  . . . you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will bestow.

However, I should point out that if we do get new names, it is possible that it could be a future event since Jesus called people in the present Heaven by name, including Lazarus (Luke 16:25)  Moses, Elijah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
