Re: Jewish given names meaning rabbi or priest
in reply to a message by Joiya
Thanks, I was doing the etymology for my nephew (he is Jewish on his father's side) and I loved the implication of him being called Adam Cohen... But Cohen was his surname, so I wanted a given name to replace the surname in my own son the day I had one. (For me its a tribute to the Golem legend with Adam standing for the Golem and Cohen standing for the creator of the Golem, body and mind, together as heroes).
