Jewish: Hebrew name meaning ‘hart, deer’. It has become a popular modern Hebrew name as a translation of Yiddish Hirsh and Hershel. The deer is traditionally associated with the name Naphtali, because in his dying blessing the patriarch Jacob says ‘Naphtali is a hind let loose’ (Genesis 49: 21). In this verse the Hebrew word for ‘hind’ is ayala, but since this is a feminine noun (see Ayala and Hinde), the masculine noun zvi is substituted as a male given name.
Variant: Zwi (German, Dutch, and Polish spelling).
