Ancient root and name story

Origin: Hebrew. Meaning: appointed or placed.

Biblical story: Seth is born to Adam and Eve after Abel's death. In Genesis he represents a restored family line after violence and loss.

Why the name matters: Seth is brief, spare and ancient. Its story gives it a quiet theme of replacement, continuation and repair.

Image rationale: the visual should suggest early Genesis family lineage, earth and renewal after grief.
