Our little Lioz (ליעוז) 💙
One of the proudest & most special days of our lives was ceremonially welcoming Noah Nathaniel into our family last Sunday with his bris & sharing the origins of his names. Noah was surrounded in our home with warmth, joy, and the most important people in our lives.
His Hebrew name is Lioz (ליעוז), which “my strength.” He’s named in honor Jen’s late Aunt Lisa, who was the strongest person we’ve ever known. Jen spoke beautifully about how Noah was her strength during pregnancy, and reminds her not just how to be strong, but that she *is* strong.
He’s named Noah Nathaniel in honor my Grandpa Norman, my dad’s dad, whose Hebrew name was Natan. Noah is the first male Eisenberg in our family since my grandpa’s passing, and standing with Noah & my dad—three generations of Eisenberg men—was extraordinarily meaningful. Noah was wrapped in the Tallis I wore at my Bar Mitzvah, which was a gift from my Grandpa Norman & Grandma Rita.
Special thank you to Rabbi Kramer (B'nai Jehudah) for leading a wonderful ceremony that we’ll cherish forever.
