Reply to: Tradition isn't etymology by Miranda
Tradition often turns out to be true, or close to truth, be it popular tradition or even "just" family tradition. Thanks to internet I've been able to check many family traditions and most weren't even exagerated.

So to me it's better than saying that we don't know the meaning (especially since Jews have always been into names, words, etymologies... my love of names is a family tradition too lol).
Just my opinion. :)
