Jakob Shreiner Bornhaus

Notes:

Jakob is the German spelling of the name Jacob in English. Jacob is a common male first name and a less well-known surname. Since 1999 and through 2010, Jacob has been the most popular baby name for newborn boys in United States. It is a cognate (a word is cognate with another if both derive from the same word in an ancestral language) of James. Jacob is derived from Late Latin Iacobus, from Greek Iakobos, from Hebrew Ya?qob, Ya?aqov, or Ya?aqo?, the name of the Hebrew patriarch, Jacob son of Isaac. It is a speaking name, referring to the circumstances of Jacob's birth, meaning "heel grabber" (from the Hebrew root "heel"; literally, it is a finite verb formed from this root, and would translate to something like "he heeled", since he held on to the heel of his twin brother Esau inside Rebekah's womb [who says so?]. Jacob may also mean "follower of God" in Aramaic. In a Christian context, the name Jacob - as James in English - is also associated with the apostles James, son of Zebedee who was the object of great veneration in the European Middle Ages, notably at Santiago de Compostela; James the Just, brother of Jesus, who led the original Christian community in Jerusalem; and James, son of Alphaeus. - Wikipedia
