And, was it written out in Hebrew on the headstone?
the spelling that people write on gravestones is an embarrassment. Permanently written ignorance. Drives me nuts lol (its my pet peeve to accurately spell hebrew written names)
As a general rule, Tanach names that end with "eh" are with a "Hei" and Yiddish names end with an "Alef".
Example:
Devorah
Moshe
Sarah
Rivka
Yehuda
Chana
Chava
Shloime
The only one that ends with an Alef is Ezra (because he was born chutz la'eretz to my knowledge?)
Yiddish Names example:
Blima
Yita
Roiza
Feiga
Mushka
Beila
--
Another note that I guess is debatable but to my knowledge other than the name Chaim (double yid).. All of these are correctly spelled with one yid..
Sheindel
Kreindel
Beila
Feiga
etc etc.. I have seen on a gravestone Feiga spelled Pei, yid, yid, gimmel, hei. The biggest permanent amiratzus I ever saw
