Enoch
There are three Enochs mentioned in the Bible (the highly similar name Hanoch is treated separately). The first Enoch is a son of Cain and the second Enoch is a town named after the first (Gen 4:17). The third Enoch is a son of Jared, of the line of Seth, third son of Adam and Eve. This Enoch, who famously "walked with God," is the seventh generation (where Adam is the first). |
(hanak 693) meaning dedicate, begin.

(hanukka 693b), dedication. This noun reappears in Hanukkah, the still celebrated Feast Of Dedication (John 10:22).
(hek 692a), palate, mouth, with connotation of speech.
