zeligman z is teh next nameit was outlaw :(Your other post said Forsaken Law... ?!?Zeligman... possibly his surname, but apparently the name 'Zelig' is of Yiddish origin and means holy. I know Z-man is of Jewish origin and Yiddish is the language used, using the Hebrew alphabet (I may be way off on this).So Zeligman = Holy man. Don't know what the other Z is about though.

Yiddish, from what I've learned (from Jaina), actually comes from German? The Jews who moved over to Western Europe, Britain and America from Eastern Europe, maintained parts of the language and made it their own.If Zman's name is Yiddish, it's just a matter of translation. So I'm going to google it...Zelig = Soul.Soul, refering to the deceased. Zman's name is pretty dark, which is new to me. Z probably for kicks, like some sort of rapper... But he raps in Yiddish.

hahaha wow... i never thought i'd make the list... if it wasn't for google, you guys would be lost....good guesses all :DZeligman is a stylized form of zelig... a family nickname that is Yiddish in origin.Yiddish is a combination of many languages but mainly German, with Russian, Polish, and a bunch of others thrown in - it is written using the Hebrew alphabet but sounds mostly German.The extra Z just gives it some symmetry... z in the beginning and at the end. Nice googling snape and mus!
