Soloveitchik

Soloveitchik (Hebrew: סולובייצ'יק‎ Yiddish: סאָלאָווייטשיק‎) (also Soloveichik) is a surname. The name is a diminutive form of the Russian word соловей, "nightingale", since the Soloveitchiks are a family of Levites, who are commanded by the Torah to sing in the Beit Hamikdash. It is notably the name of a rabbinic family descended from Yosef Dov Soloveitchik (Beis Halevi) (1820-1892). Members include:

Ahron Soloveichik (1917-2001)
Avraham Yehoshua Soloveitchik
Berel Soloveitchik (1915-1981)
Chaim Soloveitchik (1853-1918)
Eliyahu Soloveitchik (Elijah Zevi) (1805-1881)
Haym Soloveitchik (1937- )

Meir Soloveichik
Moshe Soloveichik (1879-1941)

Peter Salovey (1958- ) (unlike the other names listed here, Salovey is not a descendant of Yosef Dov Soloveitchik, but rather of his uncle Elijah Zevi)

Samuel Soloveichik (1909-1967)
