[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all! This is a very random question, but I am doing a practicum in which I work with oral testimonies of Holocaust survivors. Most of them have already been transcribed; however some have not. The subjects are usually asked to speak a bit about their families. One gentleman mentioned his father’s name and it sounded to me like Yihil or Yahil or even Irhil. He was a Yiddish-speaker born in eastern Romania. I have looked up all the variations of this with little luck. Does anyone know of the name Yihil or a similar sounding name?
Thanks in advance!
