Re: Jews & Elizabeth
in reply to a message by LMS
That's very interesting. Was the article referencing usage of Elizabeth and variants as a current baby name only, or across all ages of the Jewish population? I also wonder what are considered variants of Elizabeth (i.e. Lisa, Isabel[la], etc.?) and how the list of the most popular names among Jews anywhere in the world was compiled. Clearly Elizabeth is not a top 10 baby name among Jews in Israel, because we do have access to that information. Do you have a link to the article?

I went back to look for the article and honestly can't find it again. Isn't that the case? I guess I'd rather trust the Israel listing of top names over this article.
