The meaning of a name was very important in bible days. The bible itself informs the reader what the meaning of many biblical persons are, men of renown such as Adam, Cain, Seth, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and all his 12 sons. Their names tell the story of why or how they were born.
Some have wondered if these names (with their meanings) were intended by God to be strung together in chronological succession to tell some larger story.

Simon Magus it is said was regarded to be "God" by the Romans (apotheosis)....he was also referred to as a "Christ". The book of Acts is pointing out the seeds of a competing or allegedly counterfeit system having something to do with Simon Magus. Mani like Simon Magus would also refer to himself as 'the Paraclete'. Mohamed and Augustine of Hippo were said to have both studied Mani who is said to have followed Simon Magus one or two generations away.
