Esther2:7
7 And he brought up Hadassah (that is Esther ) his uncles daughter, for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful, whom Mordecai (when her father and mother were dead) took for his own daughter.
Hadassah was her Hebrew name before her marriage; and she was called Esther by the King after it.
