Debbi Korman's recent message about Ben Gurion's birth name prompted me as
well as Louis Zetler to refer to Wigodor's book.

But I also looked up "Zieloner" in my little Polish dictionary, and found
that it does denote "greeness" or "verdure." Possibly this is why
"someone" suggested to Ms. Korman that Ben-Gurion's name had been originally
"Zieloner".
