Adam (Name)

The personal name Adam derives from the Hebrew noun ha adamah meaning "the ground" or "earth," A literal translation is "man of the red earth". It is still a Hebrew given name, and its Biblical usage has ensured that it is also a common name in all countries which draw on Judaeo-Christian heritage. It is particularly common in Poland. In most languages its spelling is the same, although the pronunciation varies somewhat. Adán is the Spanish form of this name.
