Jakob or Jacob = יַעֲקֹב (pronounced Ya'akov)
Jacob/Jakob comes from the Latin iacobus, which was from the Greek Ιακωβος (yakobos), which was from the Hebrew name (Ya'aqov).
In the Hebrew Bible, Jacob is the son of Isaac and Rebecca and the father of the twelve founders of the twelve tribes of Israel. He was born holding his twin brother Esau's heel, and his name is explained as meaning "holder of the heel" or "supplanter", because he twice deprived his brother of his rights as the firstborn son (see Genesis 27:36).
Jacob son of Simon = יעקב בן שמעון (pronounced ya'akov ben shim'on)
