Etymology
Derived from the root הדד (hdd), which carries the meaning 'to make a loud sound, to shout, to give a cry.' The noun form הֵד (hêd) emerges from this root with a focus on the resultant sound or echo of such a cry. Occasionally connected to the noun הֵידָד (hêydād), meaning 'a cheer, shout of joy.'
