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.
Possibly same as Sumerian PN KURUM, 4th dynasty king of Uruk (Erech), ca. 2145 B.C., likely from KÚRUM<sub>7</sub>, GÚ-RU-UM, KUR<sub>7</sub>, KURU<sub>7</sub> “judge; inspect; decide, pass sentence; lookout, spy” (= Akkadian ''pa-qá-du-um'').

No etymology is suggested.
 
If Sumerian can provide [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] patterns, then perhaps the Sumerian PN ''kurum'', king of Uruk (biblical Erech) Dynasty 4 might be a parallel ([[Robert F. Smith|RFS]]). Sumerian ''kur'' means
mountain.
 
Cf. Akkadian ''kurum'' III, “Ein Stück von Stemme” or Sumerian ''kurum'', ''kur'', “cut, divide, judge, pass sentence” and ''kur'', “great, mountain, land” which appears in the name
of the pilot of the ark in the Mesopotamian flood story, ''kurgal'' ([[Robert F. Smith|RFS]]).
