Etymology

Until possible language affinities for JAREDITE names can be determined, all suggestions for etymologies of JAREDITE names must remain more speculative than substantive. With that caveat, the onomasticon does offer etymologies for some JAREDITE names, especially if it is possible that some JAREDITE names were translated into NEPHITE, or were otherwise related to one or more Semitic languages.

If JAREDITE names can be traced to Semitic roots, the JAREDITE PN COM may be derived from the Semitic root qūm, "to arise, stand up" that Reynolds, Commentary on the Book of Mormon, 6:46, observes may be "applied to a hill, a height;" cf. the Arabic kom, "hill, rubble heap, tell."
