I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Thank you for creating the article! I have marked the article as reviewed. Have a blessed day!
What I have found on that is "In the Bible, the city of Ziklag was where David and his soldiers found refuge during their war with King Saul." (Although that is in the voice of ProPublica, not the organization.) And in the same ProPublica article, "After Trump was elected in 2016, Eldred had an idea, according to Dallas. “He says, ‘I want all the wealthy Christian people to come together,’” Dallas recalled in an interview. Eldred told Dallas that he wanted to create a donor network like the one created by Charles and David Koch but for Christians. He proposed naming it David’s Mighty Men, Dallas said. Female members balked. Dallas found the passage in Chronicles that references David’s soldiers and read that they met in the city of Ziklag, and so they chose the name Ziklag." Here's the article. It sounds as if the name was chosen because it indicates that the members would view themselves as being soldiers of a sort, and also something about banding together to seek refuge. Realistically, the name might have been chosen because it is very unusual and therefore perhaps somewhat memorable, which is what you would want if you are trying to create a brand.
