spelling of name

edit

There's no great way to spell his name in English in my opinion so I'm leaving it at the weird way the name was transliterated in the article title Joel Baer Falkovich. That is the way it was spelled in the single source when I came across the article and on google books it comes up in a handful of reference works too. In most Yiddish sources his "middle" name is given as "Berish" but other times "Ber". At least now I added his name in the original Yiddish as Berish in the intro. --Dan Carkner (talk) 06:06, 25 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
