More Hebrew names
Jessy
“Jessy is an alternate spelling of Jesse or Jessie, which derives from the Hebrew "Yishai", meaning "gift" or "God's gift". In the Hebrew Bible, Jesse is the father of King David.

Daniel
“Daniel is a Hebrew masculine name meaning "God is my judge," composed of the elements din (to judge) and El (God). It is the name of the biblical prophet Daniel, whose Book of Daniel in the Hebrew scriptures recounts his survival in the lion's den and his prophetic visions. The name is widely used in Slavic countries including Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Russia.”
Jude
“An English form of Judas and Judah, from the Hebrew Yehudah, meaning "praised" or "let him be praised" — from the root yadah ("to praise"). Judah was one of the twelve sons of Jacob and the ancestor of the tribe from which the Jewish people take their name. Jude was the name of an apostle (also called Thaddaeus) and is the patron saint of desperate causes. The name was revived in the 20th century as a more usable alternative to the tainted Judas.”
Zachary
“The English form of the Hebrew Zechariah, meaning "God has remembered" — from zakar ("to remember") and Yah (a form of the divine name). It was the name of a prophet in the Old Testament and of the father of John the Baptist in the New Testament. Zachary became the common English form, partly through medieval use and partly through its American revival in the 19th and 20th centuries, boosted by President Zachary Taylor.”
Zach
“A short form of Zachary or Zacharias, both anglicised forms of the Hebrew Zechariah (זְכַרְיָה), meaning "Yahweh has remembered," from the elements zakar ("to remember") and Yah (a form of the divine name). Zechariah is borne by several figures in the Hebrew Bible, including a minor prophet and the father of John the Baptist in the New Testament.”
James
“The English form of the Late Latin Iacomus, a colloquial variant of Iacobus, from the Greek Iakobos, itself from the Hebrew Ya'akov (Jacob), meaning "supplanter" or "one who follows at the heel." The name spread through medieval Europe through veneration of two apostles — James the Greater and James the Lesser — and has been one of the most consistently popular masculine names in the English-speaking world for over 500 years.”
