I am a bit dumb with my Hebrew, but isn't is in the feminine to use a hey? Shouldn't it be with an alef?

I also thought Obama should have an alef at the end. Especially considering his middle name. A heh at the end of a name is not intrinsically feminine (Think Yehudah) but I think an alef at the end gives more of an Arabic sound. Say what you may about his Muslim connections - he is NOT Israeli or Jewish! Just my personal opinion. Torah Codes usually use a mainstream, accepted spelling - so it would make sense they would use what the newspapers are using. When they start consulting me, I'll let you know!

What's with masculine/feminine?? First of all, many, many male names end in heh (like you said Ima'la, e.g. Yehuda, Yedidya, Zecharia, Chananya...all off the top of my head). Second of all we're talking about a last name here.
