(In theory, it would be Sar (שר), but this is the Hebrew word for officer, and is not used as a name).If you go by meaning, a name meaning "prince" would be Zvulun (זבולון), so you could use:Chayim Zvulun (חיים זבולון)

How does Hannah change in The Devil's Arithmetic?

At the beginning of the book she did not really care about remembering the past as they did every passover. But at the end of the book she learned the importance of remembering our past. But if you are asking about physical change that would be different. She changed from Hannah Stern in present day to Chaya Abramowicz just by opening the door to symbolically welcome Elijah the prophet in. Instead she was whisked away to the body of Aunt Eva's dead friend, Chaya in 1942.
