Choosing a Jewish name - and the ceremonies surrounding the giving of that name - are much discussed in books of Jewish law and custom. Many of the details are not commonly known, especially when unusual situations arise, or when there is disagreement of the choice of a name.
This information is compiled here in a format which is accessible to the layman yet replete with extensive technical footnotes and references to guide the professional Rabbi when questions arise. |
