More Hebrew names
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.”
Annie
“Annie is a diminutive of Anne, itself the English form of the Latin Anna, from the Hebrew Channah meaning "grace" or "favour". The name has been in continuous use across Europe since the early Christian period. In American culture it is indelibly associated with the red-headed orphan protagonist of the musical "Annie", based on the comic strip "Little Orphan Annie".”
Benny
“Benny is a diminutive of Benjamin, which derives from the Hebrew "Binyamin" meaning "son of the right hand" or "son of the south" — both suggesting favour and strength. In the Hebrew Bible, Benjamin was the youngest son of Jacob and Rachel, and the founder of one of the twelve tribes of Israel. As a standalone given name, Benny has been popular across Europe and the Americas throughout the 20th century.”
Elliot
“An English surname and given name derived from the medieval personal name Eliott, itself a diminutive of Elias, the Latin and Greek form of the Hebrew Elijah, meaning "my God is Yahweh."

Jamie
“A diminutive of James, the English form of the Late Latin Iacobus, from the Greek Iakobos, ultimately from the Hebrew Ya'akov (Jacob), meaning "supplanter" or "he who follows at the heel." Jamie has been used as both a masculine and feminine name since at least the 18th century in Scotland, where it originated as a familiar form of James. Its gender neutrality has made it widely popular.”
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.
