Best Answer

Adam's name is written אָדָם and was pronounced Āḏām. His name means both dust and man. This name is fitting since God is said to have made him from the dust of the Earth.

Eve's name is written חַוָּה and was pronounced Ḥavā. Her name means the living one.

Eve = חַוָּה (Havva or Chavva) is derived from the Hebrew word חוה (chavah) "to breathe" or the related word חיה (chayah) "to live".


According to the Torah, Eve and Adam were the first humans.


Despite this potentially negative association, the name was occasionally used by Christians during the Middle Ages. In the English-speaking world both Eve and the Latin form Eva were revived in the 19th century.
