An uncommon Hebrew pick — distinctive and rare.
A male given name from Hebrew.
Yitzchak is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, the authentic Hebrew form of Isaac, meaning 'he laughs' or 'laughter.' When Sarah heard she would bear a son in old age, she laughed — and the child's name captured that moment of joyful disbelief made real. Yitzchak is used in traditional Jewish communities as the most authentic form of this biblical patriarch's name.
Yitzchak climbed 366 spots in the last 20 years — from #2882 to #2516.
