===Places in Israel named after Rothschild family members===

Primarily due to the generosity and influence of Baron Edmond James de Rothschild, HaNadiv (the Benefactor), on the history of the Land of Israel and the State of Israel, a tradition exists of naming cities, towns and other settlements in Israel in honor of members of the Rothschild family. Six of these places are grouped in the same vicinity, on the [[Sharon plain]], while the others are scattered throughout the country. They are, listed in order of founding:

* [[Zichron Ya'akov]] (Hebrew: Jacob's Memory), a town founded in 1882 and named after the Benefactor's father, [[James Mayer de Rothschild|James [Jacob] Mayer de Rothschild]] (1792–1868) from the Paris branch of the family;
* [[Mazkeret Batya]] (Hebrew: Remembrance of Batya), a local council near [[Tel Aviv]], founded in 1883 and named after [[Betty von Rothschild]] (1805–1886), the Benefactor's mother;
* [[Bat Shlomo]] (Hebrew: Salomon's Daughter), a [[moshav]] near [[Rehovot]], founded in 1889 and also named after the Baron's mother, who was the daughter of [[Salomon Mayer von Rothschild]] (1774–1855), the Benefactor's grandfather from the Vienna branch;
* [[Meir Shfeya]] (Hebrew: Mayer's Fields), a youth village near Zichron Ya'acov, founded as a [[moshava]] in 1891 and named after [[Amschel Mayer von Rothschild]] (1773–1855), the Benefactor's grandfather from the Frankfurt branch;
* [[Givat Ada]] (Hebrew: Ada's Hill), a town near Zichron Ya'acov, founded in 1903 and named after the Benefactor's wife [[Adelheid von Rothschild]] (1853–1935), who was also his cousin, from the Naples branch;
* [[Binyamina]], a town near Zichron Ya'acov, founded in 1922 and named after Benefactor himself (Binyamina was officially merged with Givat Ada in 2003);
* [[Ashdot Ya'akov]] (Hebrew: Jacob's Rapids), a kibbutz just south of the [[Sea of Galilee]], founded in 1924 and named after [[James de Rothschild (politician)|James Armand Edmond de Rothschild]] (1878–1957), son of the Benefactor;
* [[Pardes Hanna]] (Hebrew: Hannah's [Citrus] Orchard), a local council near Zichron Ya'acov, founded in 1929 and named after [[Hannah Primrose, Countess of Rosebery]] (née de Rothschild; 1851–1890), daughter of Mayer Anschel Rothschild;<ref>Personal email correspondence between Pardes Hannah Rishonim Museum representative and Wikipedia editor, April 2022| "This [identification of Hanna Primrose as the source of the name given to Pardes Hanna] is information that was provided to the Pardes Hannah Rishonim Museum in the 1980s after a clarification was conducted at that time with the Rothschild family archives in London. Hannah Primrose's picture which hangs in the Rishonim Museum also came from the same source... We are aware that there are those who attribute the name to other women. The claims we receive usually rely on some measure of logic but not on information that has been confirmed."</ref><ref>rishonim.house| Pardes Hanna-Karkur Founders' House Museum</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.pardes-hanna-karkur.muni.il/101/ |script-title=he:מקור השם פרדס חנה |language=he |website=Pardes Hana Karkur |access-date=15 September 2022 |archive-date=6 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221006012904/https://www.pardes-hanna-karkur.muni.il/101/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
