About the name Enos
Enos comes from the Hebrew Enosh, a word meaning man or mortal. In the Book of Genesis, Enos is the son of Seth and therefore a grandson of Adam and Eve, and the text says that in his time people began to call upon the name of the Lord. He is listed among the long-lived patriarchs before the flood. The name was taken up by English Puritans along with other Old Testament names. In the Book of Mormon, Enos is a prophet and the author of a short book of the same name, which keeps the name in use among Latter-day Saints.
