Question

Why do ancient people of Israel have repeated names in their new sons or daughters ?

Answer 1

Answer will vary, The Twelve Tribes of Israel (Hebrew: שבטי ישראל‎, romanized: Shivtei Yisrael, lit. 'Tribes of Israel') are, according to Judeo-Christian texts, the descendants of the Biblical patriarch Jacob, also known as Israel, through his twelve sons by various women, who collectively form the Israelite nation. Within ancient Judaism, one's tribal affiliation had a great impact on his or her practices and opportunities, as some tribes enjoyed privileges others did not and some tribes received more blessings than others.
