Adam isn't called by name until nearly the end of Chapter 2 (before that, he's simply "the man"), and his name is actually a clever play on words.
LOL, LOL, LOL, this is the IGNORANCE 101G speak of... the name "Adam identify "WHAT" he is, not "Who" he is in name. the first man did not have a personal name nor the woman until sin came in. ... LOL, Oh DEAR.:sweat:

It's a myth taken from older stories, even Adam isn't original
Adam and the Early Mesopotamian Creation Mythology

Abstract​

The first monotheist human, Adam, was likely a god, in the Mesopotamian mythology, just as the Hebrew Genesis reluctantly revealed, and the assertive Quran slightly hinted. Specifically, he was the pre-monotheist, Sumerian god, Idim, who was also called GodEa and many other nicknames over the millenniums. The names Idim and Adam are even linguistically related, according to early Arabic root words analysis. As a Mesopotamian god, Idim was the creator of the first human, and the father of his immediate generations, as he was sometimes referred to in the ancient literature. He was the preserver of life on earth, and the protector of humans against the evil designs of their, and his arch enemy, GodEnlil, the future monotheist Satan. The names and roles of these two important divine characters, GodIdim and GodEnlil, were etched too deep in the collective folk memory of the peoples of the greater Mesopotamia and the Near East, to be completely erased by the new monotheist order. The early monotheists had likely eased in their new believes to the peoples of the region by incorporating these two second highest ranking gods under the supreme god of heavens, GodAnu (or GodAlu), as new altered divine characters. The top god, GodAnu, was then given the post-monotheist role of the one and only god, Alhim or Allah, consistent with the key theme of the Monotheist faiths. Several important narrative details involving the events, characters, and roles in the Hebrew Genesis story of Adam must have predated it for many centuries. The story in the Quran omitted much of the details in Genesis, but included a few unique details on its own. However, all of these ancient stories seem to be independent, original stories borrowing only bits and pieces from each other.

so ask your deity to give you the14 digit number, write it down in the next post. Please. OR, begin giving silly apologetic excuses why that cannot happen when we all know it's because there is no God anyone talks with.



ok, ERROR.... (smile).....:mask:
yes, I thought so.
see above.

above? Above is making excuses for a God because you can't speak with fictional Gods and a point conceded. So both apply to the last?
