Well written article! Keep them coming…… Your topic, What’s in a Name is such an important topic. The Israeli custom of using names that appeal or are popular is so very sad. When parents take the time to name their child from a line in the Chumash or give a bracha meaning name the child has a goal to live up to their name. Naming after living or deceased grandparent is a true honour to that person.
