What I meant is that several Hebrew names in the Bible have remained as Hebrew ... Mephibosheth, Aristarchus, Ahaziah, etc. So my question involves those names which have been translated (and presumably changed) from Hebrew to English. For example, in the Tanakh, David would be Dawid, Solomon would be Schlomo, and Moses would be Moshe. So who decided that some Hebrew names stay ... and some should go?
