Yitzchok

Yitzchok is a Hebrew name derived from the biblical figure Isaac, whose name means 'he will laugh' or 'laughter'. The name is a variation of the Hebrew name 'Yitzchak', which is the original Hebrew spelling of Isaac.

In the Bible, Isaac was the son of Abraham and Sarah, and he was born when his parents were very old. His name was given because Sarah had laughed in disbelief when she was told that she would bear a child at her advanced age.

The name Yitzchok is commonly used among Orthodox and Hasidic Jewish communities as a way to honor the biblical patriarch Isaac. It has a strong connection to Jewish tradition and faith, representing the idea of joy and the fulfillment of God's promises.

While Yitzchok is a traditional Hebrew name, it is not widely used outside of Jewish communities. It is considered a distinctly Jewish name, reflecting the cultural and religious significance of the biblical figure Isaac.
