Wonderful - Judges 13:17-18

Judges 13:17-18 ESV 
And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, “What is your name, so that, when your words come true, we may honor you?” And the angel of the Lord said to him, “Why do you ask my name, seeing it is wonderful?”

Isaiah 9:6-7
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
 and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
 Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
 Of the increase of his government and of peace
 there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
 with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
 The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

The angel of The Lord identifies Himself when He says His name is wonderful. 
We share in His life when we believe on His wonderful name. 
It is the life of God, the light of the world. 

Isaiah gives us other names which show us the Triune God. 
Wonderful Counselor -  Holy Spirit
Mighty God, Everlasting Father - The Father
Prince of Peace - The Son
