|
| 525.5 | ? | CADSYS::REISS | Fern Alyza Reiss | Wed Aug 24 1988 16:24 | 3 |

Took the words right out of my mouth, Avi. Did you want to hear
first names or last names?
|
| 525.6 | answer to 525.5 | FRAIS3::DKELLER | | Thu Aug 25 1988 07:01 | 9 |
|
Shalom,
I was looking for first = surnames - not for last = family names.
So do you have some further proposals???
L'hit

| 525.7 | Surname = Family name | MARVIN::SILVERMAN | | Thu Aug 25 1988 08:23 | 5 |
| Just to clear this up -
"Chambers 20th Century Dictionary" defines 'surname' as
'family name'.

| 525.8 | some more | NOTIME::SACKS | Gerald Sacks ZKO2-3/N30 DTN:381-2085 | Thu Aug 25 1988 11:42 | 4 |
| Yechezkel = Ezekiel
Yedidya = Jedediah
Yirmiyahu = Jeremiah
Yerachmiel = ?
|
| 525.9 | Feminine | BUFFER::HOFFMAN | Joan Hoffman, DTN: 276-9829 | Thu Aug 25 1988 17:43 | 11 |
| While we're on the subject...
Anyone know the feminine for Yitzhak? If there isn't one, what would be
the closest? My neice is expecting her first child next spring, and
wants to use my father's name. If it's a boy, no problem, but somehow I
can't see Yitzhaka?!!
Regards,
Joan

| Not to forget the most obvious:
Ysrael
that is if you prefer to transliterate ' (yod) as Y instead of I.
|
| 525.12 | Some modern ones | TAV02::NITSAN | One side will make you larger | Sat Aug 27 1988 16:04 | 13 |
| Most of the names in the previous replies represent 'traditional'
Jewish names. I would like to introduce some more *modern* Hebrew
names more common currently for new boys and girls in Israel
(altough some of them may have long history):
For boys: Yaron, Yair, Yuval, Yaniv
For girls: Yael, Yafit, Yardena, Yonit
For both: Yarden (= Jordan. my neighbor just had a baby girl
named "Yarden")
/Nitsan
|
| 525.13 | Another modern ones | TAV02::BAR | | Sun Aug 28 1988 09:32 | 13 |
| Why not:
for boys: Yakov (!)
Ygal
Ytai
Yochai
for girls: Yocheved (Yochee)
Both: Yona
Avi.
