>One of the victims was Yaakov Aminov...

Will someone who understands Hebrew please advise the meaning of this name?  It looks a bit like Jacob Faithful, or the reverse, Faithful Jacob.  Am I close?

Looks the same to me. The name Amin means "trustworthy". I take it the "ov" is a Russian or Ukrainian suffix.
