About Rosh
Rosh is not Ross, not Rush, but an improvement on both of those more familiar names. The Biblical Rosh was a son of Benjamin, so you might consider it to honor a father or otherwise ancestral Benjamin. Very much associated with the Jewish New Year holiday, Rosh Hashanah.
Pronounced RAHSH.
As of October 2026, Rosh ranked #7087 in US births in 1980 SSA.
Editor's take: The name Rosh is a boy's name of Hebrew origin meaning "chief".
