my name in Greek

[Ailanthus]

Hi all,

I have an interest in seeing how my Old Testament name (Jedidiah) appears in other written languages. So far, I've only seen it written Hebrew. Someone referred me to this forum and said that someone over here might be able to show me my name in Greek. I'm also looking for an Aramaic translation (if that's even possible) and just about any other language.

Thanks!
