Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: One who laughs or rejoices, laughter

If baby giggles like Tickle Me Elmo, the nickname Ikey should do the trick. This masculine pick derives from Hebrew Isaac and Yitzchak, meaning "one who laughs or rejoices" or simply "laughter." In the Christian Old Testament, Isaac is the son of Abraham and Sarah and the loyal husband to Rebekah. His grandsons became the leaders of the 12 tribes of Israel. As for Isaac's jolly meaning, it's said to reflect Abraham and Sarah's laughter, disbelief, and joy when hearing they would have a child. Baby Ikey will carry on this legacy with their heavenly chuckles!
