Give baby's arrival the fanfare it deserves with this traditional Hebrew boy's name. Rueben, also spelled as Reuben, "behold" or "a son," perfect for those with a flair for the dramatic. It originally comes from Reuven, the first of Jacob's six sons in the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament's Book of Genesis. If that wasn't enough, your little one will probably get a kick out of seeing their name on menus, thanks to Reuben sandwiches.
