Личные имена (about some 7,000 names) (EN)

Biblical: name (possibly meaning ‘wise, educated’ in Hebrew) borne by a beautiful Shunammite virgin who was brought to the dying King David in a vain attempt to restore him to health and vigour. She was later used by David's son and successor Solomon as a reason for executing his half-brother and rival Adonijah (I Kings 1–2): Adonijah had wanted to marry Abishag.

Variant: Jewish: Avishag.
