Baby "Isaac"
Isaac - Origin and Meaning of the name
[
2 syll. i-
saa(c),
is-a-
ac ] The boy name Isaac is pronounced as AYZahK KEY. Isaac is used chiefly in the
English language and its origin is
Hebrew. The name Isaac means he laughs, laughter.
Biblical name derived from the word 'tsachaq' which means to laugh. Yitschaq (Hebrew) is an original form of Isaac. The name was
borne in the
Bible by one of the
sons of
Abraham and Sarah; his
birth brought laughter and
joy to his
parents because Sarah was ninety-nine
years old when she was informed of the pending birth. The name was taken up by
Jews from the
Middle Ages. In the 17th
century, English
Puritans started to adopt the name with some regularity. The name still remains more common with Jews.
It's a really busy Chinese New Year again this year with all the visiting and stuff. Thanks to my cousin Pauline above cos she brought her camera and we are able to take nice pics with my Grandma.
