Ehem. I must
protest this
abuse of my
name (there; now you all
know what it is).
Seth was the third son of
Adam and
Eve. The name means "
granted" due to the fact that
Seth was
granted to
Eve by
God after their first son
Cain killed their second son (
Able) because he was pissed off that
God liked
Able's
sheep better than his
veggies. Therefore,
Seth is the
father (or at least
one of the primary
fathers) of all of
humanity.
Personally, I'd rather be named after the father of everyone than some crazy Egyptian god (whose proper name is Set, not Seth). Not that I'm religious or anything. I just think it's cool.
