Thread: Baby name game NOT!!!!!!

The only reason these unqiue names come under scrutiny is because they are celbrities. I would imagine the first person to name their child 'summer' got crap too. Now it's common.

That's true. I have a friend who named her daughter Candle Raine. I would imagine if they were famous that they'd get quite a bit of crap about it, but w/ the exception of her mother, everyone else loves it.

Andrea, I love that name too I'm all for originality also, but there is a line I draw.. I wouldn't want to be named Apple or some of the others

As for "Superman" they did point this out on the Daily Show last night so other people have caught on to where the name came from. Once I heard it pronounced (not a superman fan) I actually like it.

Alls I can say is thankfully once we are 18 we can change our names if we see fit LOL of course I'm happy w/ my name, but there is one person I met that I don't think he should have kept his name.. apparantly his parents didn't care for him and never treated him well and had to give him a crappy name to rub it in.

My oldest son is named Kaelan Noah. My oldest dot is Tieryn Rayne, my middle dot is named Macaria Noelle and my youngest dot is named Jadsiah Daelyn.

Hello,

When I started examining the underlying symbolism in Smallville I decided to examine the names Kalel and Kent in the ancient Afrosemitic languages that also includes Hebrew.

1. Kalel or Kal-El is an angelic name that suggests right away that Clark Kent a.k.a. Superman is an angel. More specifically an angel of God. Moreover, if a Biblical viewpoint is used as the original writers appeared to have in mind, then Kal-El is one of the
Sons of God (Elohim).

2. Kal has many meanings that center around the supernatural. In a number of Smallville episodes involving Clark's misadventures in Metropolis, he called himself "Kal." Morgan Edge, the crime boss, called him "Kal" too. Kal means "with lightness," or "swiftness," and it is associated with the root word/name "Hal." Kal and Hal mean "everything" or "all." Thus, Kal-El means:
- "everything that is God."
- "all that is God."
- "all that God is."
- "Lightness of God."
- "Swiftness of God."
This is a pretty accurate description of how Clark Kent goes about "saving the day."

3. Let's not forget that Kal-El, the Son of God in the Kryptonian pantheon is of the House of El. Now in the ancient Hebrew mythology angels are of the House of El (specifically Yahweh). El means "God" or "of God."

4. Kal is the earliest form of AL and EL (Supreme God as male) who is the Son of the Woman (Supreme God as Mother). KAL describes the "the god who fulfills what he promises," the True Voice of God (Logos, Word of God). In the Afro-Semitic languages, like ancient Egyptian, Kal has these meanings and more. Kal=Hal= Ar, Har, Khar, and Khart. These are descriptions of the Divine Child who was known as Heru the Child. The Greeks derived the words/names such as Hero, Horus, and Heracles from this name. Clark is the predestined World Hero and World Ruler, a Kryptonian Heru. The destiny of the Heru in Egyptian religion is to conquer the Evil One (Set=Satan ["Set comes again"]), conquer the world,turn it into a paradise to rule over foreever. ***There are hints that for the upcoming season the relationship between Kryptonians and Egyptians will be explored, especially the ideas here.

5. Kal also translates as "the Son/Sun is God." When Kal is combined with El one meaning that can come from it is "the Son of God is God." Jorel told Clark that he was destined to rule the earth with strength, and "be god among men." The solar association of Kalel, the Heru, the Hero, and Heracles becomes very clear. The two L's in Kalel symbolize the Double-Lions of the Lamed. This is the hinderpart of the divine Lioness. In Egyptian L and R are interchangeable thus Kal becomes Kar, Khar, Khart etc. El is also Ar, Er, and Ur.

6. Kalel (Superman) has a similar biography to Moses, Jesus, Samson, and Hercules. This was the intention of the original writers of the Superman Mythos. Thus Kalel-Superman is destined to a Kryptonian World-Ruler, World-Hero, Law-Giver, and King of the World. It appears that with guidance from Jorel he would be a prophet of sorts too.

7. The stigmata on Clark Kent's chest that Jorel places on his chest as a reminder of who he is seems to change from the "S" insignia to a distinct "8." 8 is the number that represents Infinity; of death, change, and regeneration which is suggested by the Season Finale of Smallville 2004. The octagonal key to the cave wall is based upon the number 8, and the sacred cave is located on Route 8. 888 is the number value of Jesus Christ.

8. If one examines the description of the wrathful Divine Warrior-Hero of the Revelation of John there is a superficial resemblance of Superman to this figure. Superman coming on the clouds to save the day, eyes burning as a flame of fire (heat vision) and able to look into the true nature of things (x-ray vision), the color of war, red is a part of Superman's apparel, Superman's swift and terrible wrath against evildoers who threaten the human race he cares about etc.

9. In Egyptian mythology, Heru is called Harmakhu, the Terrible Divine Judge, "the Man of Adamantium Iron (Steel)." So you see, the Man of Steel is not a new idea. Yoruba religion has a similar figure in the male Orisha called Ogun (Divine Iron).

10. In regards to the name Kent. "Kent" in Hebrew is Knt, it appears in the Bible as "I have found a son."

Lex Luthor had better tread lightly, and not take this particular Superman for granted.
