Meaning

Yaakova is a Hebrew name that is the feminine version of Yaakov. Like Yaakov, it means “supplanter” and is derived from the word “akev”. The name Yaakova is both strong and feminine, and is significant in Jewish culture as it represents a continuation of the legacy of one of the patriarchs in the Torah. While it is not as common as other feminine Hebrew names, it remains a meaningful choice for Jewish families looking for a name that honors their heritage.
