Judáš

Judas is an ancient biblical name that is used only very rarely today. Due to its association with Judas Iscariot, it acquired a strong negative connotation and is often used as a synonym for a traitor. Historically, however, the Hebrew name was borne by several prominent biblical figures, including Jude Thaddaeus.
