what are the names of the three wise men?

[Ember]

They are not named in the Bible but traditionally they are called Melchoir, Caspar and Balthazar

[pinus]

Melchior :)

[Ember]

I thought it was Melchior, but I copied it from a Salvation Army Carol Book and I thought they must know.

Are you all so sure??...I am not..And they were essenes.. cheers

[bernardo]

Bernardo, Quizmonster and DarthVader

[Cetti]

There are two spellings of this name, Melchior and Melchoir - I wouldn't argue with the Salvation Army!

[archbishop]

Bernado,cetti,and quizmonster

[Canib]

Actually, if you are talking about the bible, there were no "three wise men" in the story. There were wise men with three gifts, but that is not definitive evidence that the number of givers was three.

Sarah asked for "wise men", bernardo, not "wise guys" ;)
