| Jaredite PNs | 1. | Prince (Ether 8:4) |
| 2. | King & last known Jaredite, 6th c. BC (Omni 1:21; Ether 15:32) | |
| Lehite PN | 3. | Nephite rebel, descendant of Zarahemla, made general of Lamanites, ca. 51 BC (Helaman 1:15, 32) |
No etymology is suggested for this Jaredite name.
As was mentioned with Corianton, feline etymology has been suggested for this and other, mostly Jaredite names.
If Sumerian can be used to explain Jaredite names, then perhaps the suggestion of Sumerian kur, “mountain” + an “heaven” + dingir (and its variants*) “god, divinity, divine” (RFS) would yield “The heavenly mountain of god.”
Cf. Book of Mormon CORIANTUM, CORIANTON, CORIANTOR, MORIANTUM, et al.
