Editing Hebrew name (section)

==Hebrew-Latin names==
Many Hebrew names were adapted into Latin, some via Greek. Such names include Jesus (from Greek Ἱησοῦς ''Iēsous'') and [[Maria (given name)|Maria]] (from Greek Μαρία ''Maria'', itself from Μαριάμ ''Mariam'', originally from Hebrew {{lang|he|rtl=yes|מרים}} ''[[Miriam|Miryām]]'').

Also, some Jews during [[Roman Empire|Roman]] times also had Latin names for themselves, such as the Christian evangelist [[Mark the Evangelist|Mark]] (Latin [[Marcus (name)|Marcus]]). As was the case with contemporary Jewish names of Greek origin, most of those Latin names are generally not associated with Jews today and have retained a Roman and Christian character.
