Baraq (בָּרָק) means "lightning."

But President Obama's name is not related to this word. It's related to the Hebrew word Baruch (בָּרוּךְ) which means "blessed".

The letters in this word are B(bet) R(reish) K(kof sofit) This sound is barak

H1301 בָּרָק Baraq

I.Barak = "lightning" or "lightning flash"

The letters in this word are B(bet) R(reish) K(kof) H(hei) Hei on the end of a word says "ah"

.

This word would be pronounced berachah

H1293 בְּרָכָה Bĕrakah

I.to bless, kneel

.

The letters in this word are B(bet) R(reish) H(hirik) K(kaf sofit) This words sounds like Barook

H1263 בָּרוּךְ Baruch

I.Baruch = "blessed"

Different words, Sorry you are wrong.

The etymology of the English name Barack traces back both to the Hebrew name Barak (meaning lightning) and the Arabic name Baarek (meaning blessed). As a result, its meaning is wholly dependent on the person choosing the name (i.e. which name was he trying to choose), rather than the name extrinsic of a person.

Barack has no meaning in Hebrew, but it's related to the Hebrew name Baruch (ברוך) which means "blessed."

There is also an unrelated Hebrew word baraq (ברק) which means "lightning," but this word is not related to barack.

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."
