Jaron's Hebrew Name...Yaron Navin Yitzhock

Jaron's Hebrew naming ceremony (called a bris) was on Sunday. It was a short ceremony held at the local synagogue. It is located so close to our home that Heather, Romi, Jaron, and I walked from our home to the synagogue.

Jaron's Hebrew name is Yaron Navin Yitzhock. Yaron (Yah-RONE) because his first name comes from this Hebrew name already. Navin (Nah-VEEN) is a Hebrew name made from the combination of two English names, Naomi and Victor, Heather's maternal grandparents. Yitzhock (YITZ-hock) was Matt's paternal grandfather's Hebrew name. (Tom's stepfather, Edward Smith).

Yaron means "he will sing, cry out", Navin means "understanding", and Yitzhock means "he will laugh."
