==Name== The memorbuch was originally called either sefer zikkaron ('Book of Remembrance') or sefer ha-zikhronot ('Book of Commemorations'). The later title, sefer hazkarat neshamot ('Memorial Book of Souls'), was soon superseded by the general name Memorbuch, derived from the Latin "memoria". The names pinḳes ('book,' from the Greek πίναξ), Selbuch, and Totenbuch occur but seldom. The word "memorbuch" is derived from the Latin "memoria".
