I’m wondering if he’s doing this as a victim of such an outrage. I don’t know what’s a “normal” name over there...but I suppose that “Kwanish’a’a’’” would be right out.

I was thinking that someone named "Zvulun" must speak from bitter experience.

You never heard of Zebulon (English)? One of the Twelve Tribes of Israel? How about Solomon (’Shlomo’ in Hebrew)?

Joshua/Yoshi/Ossi has a derivative name in Ruthian-Yiddish, it is Oshit.

During the Perestroika period I actually knew a boy named Oshit, his family fled the USSR and ended up in North NJ. He became a “Joshua” in a few weeks.

And what happens to all the Yaacovs?

Yet, Schlomos abound.

That's because in Hebrew, it's a very prestigious name. In English, you would call it Solomon.

When I was a kid, my black neighbors gave normal names to the boys. The girls weren’t so lucky. First girl was Marvenus. Second girl was Uranus. I kid you not. What made it worse, was their last name was Burns. Again, I’m totally honest.

So...you don't believe that type of mentality (controlling the names of kids) doesn't lead to gas chambers?

Yeah, right. You're the sick f--k then.

But that wouldn’t draw headlines – or sell records.
