Until a possible language origin for [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] can be determined, all suggestions for etymologies of [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] names must remain more speculative than substantive.
The etymologies of [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] names must remain speculative and it is unclear whether the [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] were Mesopotamian in origin. However, it is possible that the name may be related to the Biblical Heth, the son of Canaan, the son of Canaan, the son of Ham, the son of the patriarch Noah ([ Gen 10:15]) (cf. also the name for the biblical Hittites ''ḫty'' Hittite ''HALOT'', the Akkadian ''ḫattu (Hittite), and the name in cuneiform texts for NW Syria).
 
The biblical Hebrew PN '''HETH''', son of Canaan, is the most likely source for an etymology.<ref>Note that '''H<small>ETH</small>''' is usually given as the biblical source for the biblical Hittites, ''ḫattū'' in Akkadian, and the name in cuneiform sources for NW Syria ([[Robert F.
