Reply:Michael is Hebrew for "He who is like God"


Daniel is Hebrew for "My Judge is God"


David is Hebrew for "Beloved"


Isaac (Yitzkak) is Hebrew for "Laughter"





These are all typical Jewish names. And any of the names you find in the Bible are typical Jewish names. Even Matthew comes from the Hebrew Mattisyahu (which is the name of a top 40 Jewish Reggae singer).
