Levi

Meaning & origin

Levi is a unisex given name of Hebrew origin, generally understood to mean "joined in harmony" or "attached." In the Bible, Levi was the third son of Jacob and Leah and later became the ancestor of the tribe of Levi, a group entrusted with religious and priestly duties. The name also gained cultural prominence through Levi Strauss, the German-American entrepreneur who co-founded Levi Strauss & Co., making the surname — and later the term "Levi's" — closely associated with denim jeans. In addition, Levi can be linked to the Hebrew word "livyatan", meaning "crown" or "twisted," evoking the image of something intertwined or coiled.
