Hidden Code In Names

Hidden code in names refers to the practice of embedding specific meanings, symbols, or messages within personal names. This can be done for various reasons, including cultural, religious, or personal significance. The concept is often associated with gematria, a form of Jewish numerology where Hebrew letters are converted into numbers and combined. In Hebrew, this practice is known as קוד מוסתר בשמות (kod muster bashmot). Similar practices exist in other cultures, such as the use of isopsephy in Greek, where letters are assigned numerical values. Hidden codes in names can also be found in various forms of media, literature, and even in modern cryptography, where names might be used to encode secret messages. The practice highlights the deep cultural and symbolic significance that names can hold across different societies.
