Yitzhak is a common Hebrew name, often associated with the biblical figure Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah. In Jewish tradition, Yitzhak is known for his role in the stories of the Torah, particularly for being nearly sacrificed by his father, which is commemorated during the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah. The name Yitzhak means "he will laugh" in Hebrew, reflecting the joy surrounding his birth, as Sarah laughed when she learned she would have a child in her old age. Today, Yitzhak remains a popular name in Israel and among Jewish communities worldwide, symbolizing faith and continuity.
