In Bible times and even today, a man and his name are so intimately related that "to cut off the name" of an individual amounted to the same thing as killing him. A name was often taken as a wish for or prophecy about the child's future. For example, Jacob can mean "grabber" a good one-word biography for that scheming patriarch. Naomi and her husband named their two sons Mahlon and Chilion, translated as "Puny" and "Pining". And that was exactly what they were. Both of them died in early adulthood. Solomon means "peace" and sure enough, he became the first king of Israel to reign without going to war.
