When you are filling out the information form to order a ketubah, you will notice that when we ask for Hebrew names, you can only type in English. Here you have three options:
Transliterate the name from Hebrew to English and type in English letters. Example: Mordechai. We will then write Mordechai in Hebrew on the ketubah where it is called for. There is only one proper spelling for many Hebrew names. If you have a specific spelling for a name in Hebrew that is different from the commonly accepted spelling please let us know! You can write us a note at the bottom of the information form in the space reserved for extra comments or questions or you can call us at 1-800-KETUBOT (1-800-538-8268)
If you don’t know the name in Hebrew or if someone does not have a Hebrew name, we can transliterate the English name into Hebrew. Write “transliterate” in the box that asks for the Hebrew name. Example: If the name is Richard, we will write Richard in Hebrew letters. A person reading the Hebrew will read the Hebrew letters as Richard.
You can print out the information form and write the Hebrew names in the proper places (clearly and legibly) -or- you can call us at 1-800-KETUBOT (1-800-538-8268) and we will send you an information form that you can fill out in pen and return to us.
