Meanings and history of the name Seth

Hebrew origin. Means "appointed" (Eve gave birth to Seth as a third son, the first and second being Cain and Abel. When Cain slew Abel, Eve believed God "appointed" her Seth).

Sete means otter in Old French (from ancestry.com)

Set /sɛt/ or Seth (/sɛθ/; also spelled Setesh, Sutekh, Setekh, or Suty) is a god of the desert, storms, disorder, violence and foreigners in ancient Egyptian religion. In Ancient Greek, the god's name is given as Sēth (Σήθ). Set is not, however, a god to be ignored or avoided; he has a positive role where he is employed by Ra on his solar boat to repel the serpent of Chaos Apep. Set had a vital role as a reconciled combatant. He was lord of the red (desert) land where he was the balance to Horus' role as lord of the black (soil) land. (from Wikipedia)
