Its funny how majority of the names mentioned especially the ones OP gave in original post are the most common names in the chareidi Israeli community - atleast in the community that I am part of - majority are kollel families with some working or starting to work. I see names are really community specific if these are all 'original' names in your communities

Interesting! Are names like Esti, Rivky, Chani, Nechama, Leah etc. the most common names in any Israeli community?

I live in Israel, I'm not sure what we are. Modern chareidi? I'm looking for something fine, that won't turn heads but isn't super common.


In my daughter's class she had multiple Avitals in a modern chatedi type school

Noah and Avital are so popular among the „uncommon but not out there“ crowd that they are completely overdone.
Also, Yael or Adina are „pretty and cooler biblical names “ that everyone uses


How can a name be overdone?

Would you say names like Rachel and Sarah are overdone?

There’s a finite amount of Jewish names in existence. And BH many Jewish babies being born, so obviously names will be used often! BH!

Shoham, Shilat, Shira, Shiri, Batsheva, Liba*, Henna/Henny*, Shayna*, Ruchama, Shifra, Ashira, Batzion, Rina, Rinat, Chagit, Cheftziba.

*Yiddish names are unusual in Israel but I’ve heard these three especially Henny after Rebbetzin Machlis.

No
ליאל and

are not nicknames. They are names on their own.
