Herzl is a beautiful boy’s name of Yiddish origin. Borrowed from the name Hirsh, Herzl means “deer,” making it a special way to dote on your little one’s delicate nature. Herzl was also carried by Theodore Herzl, the founder of modern Zionism and the inspiration behind the 1976 play Herzl, penned in celebration of his political activism. Your darling may be dainty as a deer, but—who knows—a name like Herzl could awaken their hunger for world change!
