| |
We just found out, bli ayin hara, that we are expecting our 1st baby boy. We like names that aren't common. So I was wondering if you could help my by offering some suggestions. We are OOT chassidish if that helps at all but we aren't too worried about "fitting in" so to speak.
Thanks for the help!!!

Amitzur

All these, of course, are used in Israel but aren't common as far as I can tell.

| If Yiddish is fine, tons of rarer ones. Get the Beider dictionary. There are such gorgeous, gorgeous names there. If you do Ladino, tons of nice rare ones too.

we probably wouldn't do ladino since we are not of any hispanic or sephardic descent.
Where would I find the beider dictionary?

| If you're good with Aramaic/Talmudic names: Tanchum, Abaye (I actually know one), Sa'adya.
