Ohad is a Hebrew name of uncertain meaning, possibly related to the Hebrew root ʾaḥaḏ meaning "to unite." In the Old Testament, Ohad is mentioned as the third son of Simeon (Genesis 46:10). Simeon was the second son of Jacob and Leah and the founder of one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The name Ohad appears only in genealogical lists and has no further biblical narrative attached to it, making its exact significance elusive. As a given name, it is used in modern Israel and occasionally among English-speaking Christians familiar with the Bible.
