Barzillai, his odd name
The odd (perhaps unique?) first name of this historical personage begs for some explanation, if it's available. (I realize that an unusual name is often the result of nothing more or less than the creativity of the child's parents. Nevertheless, such an aberration inspires questions in the reader's mind.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8804:8604:E400:9534:9889:D46C:1108 (talk) 12:18, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
 * It's biblical. One of the more obscure figures from the Bible, but not unknown. --Coemgenus (talk) 19:27, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
