The name Jakob [it can be Jacob in German also] comes from the Biblical story of his birth where he came out holding the heel of his twin brother Esau. It is a cognate of James and is derived from Late Latin Iacobus, from Greek Ikobos, from Hebrew Yaqob, the name of the Hebrew patriarch, Jakob son of Isaac.
