The word Barack, which exists in Hebrew as well as in Arabic (there is no "Muslim language), means blessed.
Baraq means lightning, but that is not related to the name "Barack". "Barack" is related to the Hebrew word Baruch, meaning Blessed.Obama has no meaning in Hebrew.
if by jewish, you mean hebrew, there are many names that are similar Arabic: Barack Hebrew: Baruch (blessing) Arabic: Malik Hebrew: Melech (king)
The Hebrew equivalent of Barack is Baruch (ברוך), which means "blessed". Coincidently, the name Barack sounds the same as the Hebrew name Baraq (ברק), which means ligntning, but the two names are not related.
His name comes from the Hebrew. In Hebrew there is a word Baraq (ברק) (which means lightning), but it is not related to the president's name. Barack is related to the Hebrew word Barukh (ברוך) which means blessed.

Barack Obama's name has no meaning in Hebrew. But his first name is related to the Hebrew name Baruch (ברוך), which means "blessed."Answer:Barack is completely unrelated to "baruch;" they are different Hebrew roots. It is, however, (phonetically) identical to the Hebrew "barak," meaning Lightning.
It would be the same as in English.
Barack in Hebrew would be "Baruch" (note: the ch is NOT pronounced like 'choose'; rather, it is pronounced almost like a kh, as if you are clearing your throat; it is a sound we do not have in English, and it is often printed in English as just an H, like in 'Hanukkah'). As has been noted elsewhere, the name comes from the Arabic word for "blessed." In fact, both Baruch and Barack mean "blessed."
If you meant Barack (as in Obama) It means 'blessed'
