Gad 014

The name Gad primarily means "fortune" or "good luck,"  given by Leah to her son Gad. The boy was a son of Jacob's handmaid, Zilpah, who said: "I am fortunate" and "happy is she who calls me blessed" (Genesis 30:13). This is why the name can also mean "lucky".

The name Gad is symbolized by "fortune," "luck," or "happiness," stemming from Leah's exclamation when she named her son, the seventh son of Jacob.

In general, the name Gad carries connotations of positivity, good fortune, and joy.
