WOW WOW WOW. This was truly great. I can't express how this deepened my understanding and reaffirmed my strong beliefs in my heritage. I am so grateful to be born Jewish. What a gift.Not saying it is easy. It isn't. But we are blessed. Thank you so much!
Thank you very much, very interesting. My second name is ‚Michael‘, my mother had wanted it to be my first name, but my father ´didn‘t really like Jews‘ and jewish names though he complained having been sent into war by Hitler. Most people never learn…
Coincidentally, just before reading this article I wrote to an acquaintance in Israel "shem sheli yehudeet." My phonetic translation of Hebrew into English leaves a LOT to be desired. Does anyone know how to write in English the Hebrew word for "Judith"? Thanks in advance!
I loved this essay. A pleasant departure from that we usually see in FofJ. Not a negative critique of what we usually see, just pointing out a fact. Thanks.
As to non-Jewish names in Israel's neck of the woods is the Allenby Bridge. What I found fascinating were the previous names of Peres and Ben-Gurion and was unaware of the directive for ministry employees to take Hebrew/Jewish names by Moshe Sharett but am not surprised as the 1948 Israelis were creating a new identity separate from the Diaspora. Mazel tov to my Jewish friends here and the Israelis.

I don't think Judy Garland was Jewish.
You are right, she wasn’t.
She wasn't. And including her in the list is slovenly reporting.
Excellent✨
The brilliant antidote to the poison forced down the throats of children being 'educated' by
incompetent - antisemetic - 'teachers' holding our children hostage in institutions of 'learning!
This writer is blessing to us.

Last names are actually really interesting too. Wait for an article on that.
An important column. Thank you! ⭐
I didn’t know any of this and it’s fascinating! Thank you!!

I compose with pen & quill on paper and parchment... tapping on a wee glass is not a comfort to me.
The channels from brain to hand will strengthen a child greatly I have found to be true in all my years of teaching children.
