[Facts] *confused*
in reply to a message by Erik
so u want any old hebrew name, bcz if you go to the main page, type in 'hebrew' and click the 'look in discriptions' circle, then search, u get a lot of hebrew names.
if u are looking for the hebrew equivalent of the name keith, are you looking for a name with the same meaning in hebrew?
well on this web site there are no hebrew names that mean wood or wind, which keith means, so try finding a hebrew dictionary.
Or were you thinking of how keith would be pronounced in hebrew? cant help u with this one.
Good luck~Silver (SD)

TraditionIn our family,we pick our own Hebrew names from people we love dearly. It is not uncommon that you come across a name that is not Hebrew. Your hebrew name can be English. Like Keith is.

Ilan?Based on Silver's comment, if Keith really means wood, the Hebrew word "Ilan" (which is currently popular among both Israeli and American Jewry) means tree, which is like wood. Ilan is Biblical in nature, appearing several times in the book of Daniel, and also appears many times in the Talmud.
