Well, you've already got Daniel, but my middle name is Adam, meaning, I
think, either "man" or "earth", depending on whether or not the final
"he" is present ('adam - man; 'adamah - earth). My last name, Seriff,
means either "jeweler" or "tailor", I can never remember. My Hebrew name
is David Avram: "Beloved of God, Exalted Father". I knew that
Harper-Collins Bible Dictionary would come in handy!

This is a cool idea! Much better than simple transliteration. I think
I'll do this with Mungayöd as well. Thanks, Dan!
