רב בא Rav Ba
Amora of the Land of Israel · 3rd generation (c. 290–320 CE) — named 5 times across 4 tractates of the Bavli.
Rav Ba, of the third amoraic generation in Eretz Yisrael, bears the Eretz-Yisrael tradition's shortened spelling of the name the Bavli usually writes as Rav Abba — the same shortening that gives Rabbi Bun for Rabbi Avin.
Under this spelling the name is found five times, twice in Sanhedrin and once each in Bava Kamma, Kiddushin and Shabbat, and once Rav Yehuda reports a teaching in his name. The roster marks the entry for review, since the spelling does not by itself fix which of the sages called Abba is meant.
The Yerushalmi spelling of Rav Abba; appears in Shekalim.
