“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” (William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet) The word “name” in Hebrew and Greek has a lot more meaning to it than the English equivalent today. We can see traces of the original definition in some older phrases, but, in general, if you ask someone what the word “name” means, they’ll say it means a label to call someone, such as “Maria,” to distinguish someone from another person when speaking.
