Yehuda

Yehuda is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, the Hebrew form of Judah, from the Hebrew Yehudah meaning 'praise' or 'praised.' In the Bible, Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah, whose tribe became the dominant tribe of Israel; the modern Jewish people take their name from Judah.

Yehuda is the authentic Hebrew form used in Israel and in observant Jewish communities worldwide. Choosing Yehuda over Judah signals a deep connection to Hebrew language and Jewish identity. It carries the weight of Jewish history and the meaning of praise.
