The name has been borne by 23 popes, as well as kings of England, Hungary, Poland, Portugal and France.

    ADAM m English, French, German, Polish, Russian, Romanian, Biblical
    Pronounced: A-dam
    This is the Hebrew word for "man". It could be ultimately derived from Hebrew adam meaning "to be red", referring to the ruddy colour of human skin, or from Assyrian adamu meaning "to make". According to Genesis in the Old Testament Adam was created from the earth by God (there is a word play on Hebrew adamah "earth"). He and Eve were supposedly the first humans, living happily in the Garden of Eden until Adam ate a forbidden fruit given to him by Eve.
