What is the meaning of the name Menosh ?

The baby name Menosh is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MEH-nosh.

Menosh is Hebrew in Origin.

Menosh is a rare cross-cultural given name with more than one plausible root. Most commonly it is treated as a spelling variant of Semitic Enosh/Enos (Hebrew אנוש; Aramaic/Syriac ܐܢܳܫ), meaning “mortal; humankind.” Enosh appears in the Hebrew Bible as a grandson of Adam, and the name entered Greek and Latin as Enos, later inspiring forms used by Jewish and Christian communities. In South Asian Christian circles, Anosh/Enosh are well known; Menosh surfaces as a regional phonetic or stylistic rendering.

Another pathway links the name to Iranian and Indo‑Aryan vocabularies where anush/anoush means “sweet; delightful” (and in Middle Persian anōšag, “immortal”), and to Manush/Manoš, a Romani and South Asian term for “person.” Variants and cognates include Enosh, Enos, Anosh, Anoush/Anush (often feminine), Manush/Manosh. Usage today is uncommon but international, with the meaning you emphasize depending on the lineage you choose.
