The word âZaireâ comes from the Portuguese; it represented their interpretation of the Bantu word ânzereâ meaning âthe river that swallows all riversâ (obviously in reference to the Congo River which, aptly named Zaire at one point, also happens to be the worldâs deepest river).aire first appeared on the masculine naming charts in 1999. Oddly enough it has only so far appeared on the male charts and not the female. We think this is a name that works for either gender. Since the turn of the 21st century Zaire has been dwelling near the bottom of the boyâs Top 1000 list of names in circulation.

Lahamu was the first-born daughter of Tiamat and Apsu in Akkadian mythology. With her brother Lahmu she is the mother of Anshar and Kishar, who were in turn parents of the first gods. Lahamu is sometimes seen as a serpent, and sometimes as a woman with a red sash and six curls on her head. It is suggested that the pair were represented by the silt of the sea-bed. There are also parallels between the Sumerian Creation story and the Biblical Creation story in where Adam and Eve were the first-born of the gods.
