I need a lot of Hebrew names that would fit in the time of Joseph and his brothers in Egypt. I have a lot of minor Hebrew characters, so I want to know what sort of names they would have. Both male and female.

http://judaism.about.com/library/3_lifecycles/names/bl_names.htm <-- just a quick search; I don't know how accurate they are for the time period, but there are a whole bunch that sound about right that you can search through. (But don't sue me; I'm not Hebrew; I know nothing!)
