Description

The New Name Dictionary by Alfred J. Kolatch is a comprehensive guide to Hebrew names and their meanings. This dictionary provides a fascinating introduction to the origins of names and the Jewish naming process, followed by separate alphabetical listings of English masculine and feminine names. Each English name is defined and matched with its Hebrew equivalents, including equivalents for the opposite sex. Entries also include Hebrew script and spelling for names derived from Hebrew. With over 10,000 entries, this dictionary is an invaluable resource for parents searching for a Hebrew name with the same meaning as an English name or vice versa. The New Name Dictionary is a useful reference source that will be helpful to prospective parents, individuals interested in names and their origins, and those beginning genealogy research.
