| Aug 4, 2019 at 17:10 | comment | added | DanF | כלב is somewhat common, actually. However, at least from my exposure to a diverse nationality, it seems that Gentiles have a bit more of affinity to this name (Caleb). פלטיאל seems to be quite common. One of my close friends has that name and I know about 4 others. I have to admit, though, that despite my trying to convince 4 people who were pregnant, I couldn't convince anyone to name their son בוקי בן יגלי. I just can't imagine why no one likes this name ... | |

| Aug 4, 2019 at 12:39 | comment | added | Al Berko | Finding a name here and there does not address the question and you can move your answer to comments. Clearly those names were forgotten even by the sages - there's no Tana or Amorah Kaleb or Booki, but there're Yehoshua. Why Yehoshua's better than Kaleb as a name and a person? | |
