Daitch–Mokotoff Soundex is a phonetic algorithm invented in 1985 by Jewish genealogists Gary Mokotoff and Randy Daitch.

Daitch–Mokotoff Soundex is sometimes referred to as "Jewish Soundex" and "Eastern European Soundex", although the authors discourage use of these nicknames for the algorithm becaus
