Jewish Character Name in TV series
I'm a big fan of the Power Ranges franchise, and in one of the latest seasons, SPD, there was a character who went by the name Bridge Carson. Bridge is Jewish--the first Jewish ranger in a long line of ethnically diverse ranger teams. I'm working on some fan pieces regarding the series, but I've run into a snag. I don't know much about Judiasm and Jewish culture, but I am aware that Jewish people have to have a Hebrew name, right? But Bridge is an English word. So, what's his Hebrew name? I've heard that similar sounding names are used, but the only Jewish names I found in the database that sound anything like Bridge are Barak and Baruch.I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how Hebrew names are handled both in the faith and legally, and help me sort through what Bridge's Hebrew name would be. Please.
