Hello all,
Currently looking for Hebrew names for boys. We’ve decided on Talia for a girl but are struggling for boys names.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

And through work I met a baby Boaz.

And then about 6 months later I came across another Boaz. Different one and very roughly about the same age. It was surprising.

Is Boaz about to have a surge of popularity? I'm not sure I'd call it a comeback.
