Our story of Roneisha
The Ron at its front has more than one life. In English it is the short form of Ronald and the opening of Veronica; in modern Hebrew, ron is a word for a ringing song of joy, and Ron is an ordinary Israeli name. Roneisha joins that bright syllable to a soft American ending, so the name opens with a song and closes with a hush.
