Hi Liz,
In my research on words called Hebrew or Aramaic in Greek, I made the following notes in addition to what I mentioned in my presentation. As you can see, most of the Semitic words are proper names.
The following are words that are said to be Hebrew:
Apollonius, Apotelesmata Page 1384 line 7 ᾿Αθνιὴλ, ᾿Ιαὴλ, Βραδὴλ, ῎Αγγε, Ζιάθου, Μαχρὰ, Μάχελ, (7) Μενὲκ, ᾿Αζθέου, Βρισὰρ, Αἴγηρ, Λαὰτ, Χαρτόσμου, Δαχαρίαχζ, Ναξμαὶζ, ᾿Αμακτὰ, …
Heron De mensuris 60.4 χουζά
Heron De mensuris 61.8 ἔτεμεν
Theophilus Ad Autolycum 2.24 ᾿Εδὲμ = τρυφή
Theophilus Ad Autolycum 3.19 Νῶε = ἀνάπαυσις
Herodianus Partitiones Page 7 line 3 βοανεργὲς = ὁ υἱὸς τῆς βροντῆς
Herodianus Partitiones Page 31 line 5 ᾿Ελωῒ = ὁ Θεός
Origenes Contra Celsum 6.32 ᾿Ελωαΐ
Origenes Commentarii in evangelium Joannis 13.26.161 Μεσσίας = Χριστὸς / ᾿Ηλιμ-

Origenes Selecta in Genesim 12 page 100 Χοῦς = Αἰθιοπίας

The following are "Aramaic" words:
