[Facts] Some Western Yiddish names: Mate and Elkel
I came across the Jewish woman Glückel of Hameln known for her autobiographic notes. Two of her sisters were named Mate and Elkel, and I want to know the etymology of these two names. The background is Ashkenazic Judaism, the time is 17th century.The names aren't yet in the database.
