ArchivesRe: What's the etymology of Salutius and Salutia?
in reply to a message by Anneza
of course! I love talking!
Jewish women historically were not obliged to have Hebrew names because they were never called up to read the Torah, only men participated in major Jewish rituals. In order to participate in Jewish rituals you need to have a Jewish name.
BTW a religious name consists of a Hebrew Patronymic surname meaning Son or daughter and a religious first name (typically of Hebrew origin or sometimes of another origin but it is very rare the only example I can think of is Aramaic or the name Alexander)
Jewish women do have Hebrew names nowdays
