FUN FACT: Originally, the -ster ending on a name denoted a female. Thus, a Webster was a female webber (weaver). Other names that follow this: Brewster (brewer), Baxter (baker), Spinster (spinner). #surnames #onomastics #names #nameorigins #etymology

Fun fact: West Sem. GDL means "to grow" so Gadal-Jama the Judean was named "YHWH is great" like Allah Akbar in Islam #philology #linguistics #onomastics
