Amora of Babylonia · 4th generation×22 named in the Bavli13 tractates3 as a patronymic

Rav Acha bar Adda, of the fourth Babylonian generation, was one of the nechutei — the sages who travelled between Eretz Yisrael and Babylonia and carried each centre's rulings to the other. Eight of his citations accordingly introduce a teaching in another's name.

He is named a little over twenty times across thirteen tractates, three of those inside another's patronymic, spread thinly with Bava Batra and Kiddushin the heaviest.

A nachota.
