Beautiful, innocent, and wide-eyed, if your little one reminds you of the beloved Bambi, consider Hirsch as their given name. Hirsch comes from Middle High German hirtz, meaning "deer" or stag." Written as הירש in Yiddish, Hirsch shares similarities with Hersh and Hirsh and is particularly common among Yiddish societies due to its connection to Naphtali. When Jacob blessed his sons in Genesis 49:21, he described his sixth son, Naphtali, as "a doe set free that bears beautiful fawns." Either way, Hirsch makes for a heartwarming choice for your little doe!
