The name Moses, of Hebrew origin, is renowned for its historical significance and biblical associations. Derived from the Hebrew word 'mosheh,' meaning 'drawn out' or 'to pull out,' it reflects the story of baby Moses being drawn out of the bulrushes by Pharaoh's daughter in the Book of Exodus. This name has been popular throughout history, with notable figures bearing it including the prophet and leader Moses, founder of the Israelite nation, as well as prominent historical figures such as Moses Mendelssohn, a German Jewish philosopher, and Moses Harris, an American civil rights activist.
"The name Mose saw a peak in popularity during the late 1920s to early 1930s with eight births each in 1923 and 1934. However, it has remained relatively uncommon overall, with only 55 births recorded between 1914 and 1944."
