“Nimrod”, contrary to the US bastardization, means “Hunter”.

Not a bad name.

Yes, it means “Hunter” in Hebrew, but after that, Nimrod is an evil person in both the Bible and the Koran.

From the Bible Nimrod was both a hunter and foolish. However, his prowess as a hunter was not the point of the biblical story.
