Meaning & History

(female) Jewish: from a Hebrew word denoting a female wild goat. The name is borne in the Bible by a Kenite woman who killed Sisera, the Canaanite general and an enemy of the Israelites, by hammering a tent peg through his temples while he was asleep (Judges 4:17–22). It has remained extremely popular among Jews to the present day, but has achieved little currency among non-Jews.

Variant: Jael.
