[name]Hi[/name] folks,
I’m looking for a Jewish name that would be the equivalent to [name]Ernest[/name]. It was a relatives name, but seems a little dated. Any recommendations are welcome!
Thanks!
You could use a last name. Or
[name]Ernest[/name] means (surprise) “earnest”
Some names with similar meanings:
[name]Tom[/name] - Hebrew “honest”… according to behindthename.com
[name]Ethan[/name] - Hebrew “solid, enduring”
Amittai - Hebrew “my truth”
What about just using another Hebrew ‘E’ name? I was under the impression that the tradition was to use the letter but not the actual name, as it is considered bad luck. [name]How[/name] about:
[name]Elijah[/name]
[name]Eli[/name]
[name]Elan[/name]
[name]Eben[/name]
[name]Emmet[/name]
[name]Ephraim[/name]
[name]Ezra[/name]
[name]Ezekiel[/name]
[name]Emmanuel[/name]
It’s usually considered bad luck if the person is still alive.
[name]Erin[/name]?
