Onomastics is a field of study that reveals stories, trajectories through time, and cultural pathways. In Jewish communities, names and surnames are not only elements of identity but also bearers of memory, tradition, and origin. Their origins are often linked to places of settlement, professions, linguistic influences, and even historical circumstances that marked the lives of community members.

The study and presentation of Jewish onomastics allows for an understanding of the links between daily life and collective history, highlighting both continuity and the transformations experienced by the community over the centuries.
