Zalman is a male first name, a Yiddish-language variant of Solomon that is also pronounced Salamon. The name was common among East European Jews, and it still has usage in many Haredi and especially Hasidic communities all over the world. Some of the founders of modern Israel bore this name, including Zalman Shazar, third President of Israel. In present-day modern secular circles in Israel the name is not common, being identified as "a diaspora name". In English-speaking countries, the name is sometimes abbreviated to "zal", which is not attested in Israel. "Zalman" is ethimologically related to "Zalmai" or "Zalmay", an Afghan name. People named "Zalman" include: * Zalman Aran, Zionist activist, educator and Israeli politician (also Zalman Aranne) * Zinovy Gerdt (born Zalman Khrapinovich), Soviet/Russian theatre and cinema actor * Zalman Grinberg, Lithuanian/Israeli/American doctor, Holocaust survivor * Zalman King, American film director, writer, actor and producer * * Zalman King's Red Shoe Diaries, TV series by the above * Zalman Kornblit, Romanian Jewish playwright * Zalman Teitelbaum, one of two Grand Rebbes of the Satmar Hasidim (full name Zalman Leib Teitelbaum or Zalman Leib Yekusiel Yehudah Teitelbaum) * Zalman Melamed, Israeli settler Rabbi (full name Zalman Baruch Melamed) * Zalman Moishe HaYitzchaki, Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi (known familiarly as "Reb Zalman Moishe") * Zalman Nechemia Goldberg, Israeli Rabbi * Zalman Schachter, Polish-born American Rabbi (full name Zalman Schachter-Shalomi) * Zalman Schocken, German Jeweish, (later Israeli) publisher * Zalman Shazar, President of Israel * * Zalman Shazar Junior High School, named for the above * Zalman Shmotkin, spokesman for the Chabad-Lubavitch movement * Zalman Shoval, Isralei politician and diplomat * Zalman Shragai, Mayor of Jerusalem * Zalman Sorotzkin, East European (later Israeli) Rabbi * Zalman Usiskin, American mathematician * Zalman Yanovsky, Canadian rock musician (also Zal Yanovsky) The compound "Shneur Zalman" is common among people of Hasidic Chabad affiliation, derived from their founder Shneur Zalman of Liadi. ==See also== *Salman 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zalman (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
