Subject: A question on Rebecca
Author: Winter Roisin   (guest, 211.26.35.2)

Okay, now I visited another site that said and I quote:

Rebecca...
Rebecca is another name we know as Biblical, and may assume has a Hebrew origin. The Hebrew name for Rebecca is actually Ribqah. Not as eloquent, is it?

and I was wondering if anybody could clear it up for me, is Ribqah or even Rivka the original version from which Rebecca comes from
