Libi (name)
Libi is a modern Jewish name (ליבי) according to various baby name sites. It is derived from the plural of the Hebrew word ' lev' (heart), which is 'libbot', leading it to be described as meaning "my heart". Alternatively, it has been listed as meaning "loved one", most likely deriving from Yiddish and the German word ' liebe'. Libi is also rarely used as a variant of Libby, a diminutive of Elizabeth. Libi in Arabic means 'Libyan' and is typically used as part of a surname for people of Libyan origin, al-Libi.

Hebrew-language Given Names
Hebrew (; ; ) is a Northwest Semitic language of the Afroasiatic language family. Historically, it is one of the spoken languages of the Israelites and their longest-surviving descendants, the Jews and Samaritans. It was largely preserved throughout history as the main liturgical language of Judaism (since the Second Temple period) and Samaritanism. Hebrew is the only Canaanite language still spoken today, and serves as the only truly successful example of a dead language that has been revived. It is also one of only two Northwest Semitic languages still in use, with the other being Aramaic. The earliest examples of written Paleo-Hebrew date back to the 10th century BCE. Nearly all of the Hebrew Bible is written in Biblical Hebrew, with much of its present form in the dialect that scholars believe flourished around the 6th century BCE, during the time of the Babylonian captivity. For this reason, Hebrew has been referred to by Jews as ''Lashon Hakodesh'' (, ) since ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The information he gave under torture to Egyptian authorities was cited by the George W. Bush Administration in the months preceding its 2003 invasion of Iraq as evidence of a connection between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda.
