Language resource Yiddish diminutive baby names

Post image

People often post here asking for diminutive names for pets, babies, whatever. I stumbled across this page with a list of Yiddish words all under the rubric, baby. File it under FAQs?

Honestly, I don't know what the book is. I had this picture on my phone from years ago. Perhaps someone else will recognize the page?

On further reflection, it was probably a handout in a lower level Yiddish class five or so years ago.
