Hebrew Origin?

Hi Andrew,
It is somewhat srprising to hear that there is only one Entin family in the Chicago area. We have about a dozen in the Massachusetts/Rhode Island area.
I wonder what is it that you heard about the Hebrew origin of our last name. I thought it came from the Yiddish name Enta (Yenta). So Entin literally means "Enta's"
What generation Jewish-American are you?
Regards,
Michael
