The term camel is derived via Latin and Greek (camelus and ÎºÎ¬Î¼Î·Î»Î¿Ï kamÄlos respectively) from Hebrew or Phoenician gÄmÄl. The Hebrew meaning of the word gÄmÄl is derived from the verb root g.m.l, meaning (1) stopping, weaning, going without; or (2) repaying in kind.
The word is actually Latin. It comes from the words lux (light/fire) and ferre (to bear/to bring) and when put together means bearer of light or bringer of fire. Lucifer is also one the Latin names for the morning star, Venus. As it turns out, so is the Greek word Eosphorus.
