Jaredite PN 1. King, usurper (Ether 7:3, 15)
2. Soldier, ca. 700–600 BC (Ether 13:17)
Jaredite GN 3. Land and valley (Ether 14:27–28)

No etymology for this JAREDITE name is suggested.

Highly doubtful are suggestions based on Semitic derivations, such as Old Akkadian ḫuriānum, a plant, ḫurium (Gelb, 132) and ḫurrum, “hole, mine” (Gelb, 133) (JAT).
