Meaning and background
The story behind Uri
Uri is a Hebrew given name written אוּרִי and translated 'my light'. The initial component is related to Hebrew words for light, and the name appears in the Hebrew Bible as the father of Bezalel. This is a documented personal-name derivation rather than an association invented from the English sound. Although Uri resembles the beginning of Uriah, the longer name has an additional theophoric element and should be handled as a distinct entry.
