I'm Glad I'm Here!

I like the point you are making. I think that there is an unfortunate removal from recognizing the amount of time that went into the KJV translation of the Bible.
So much effort is put into making a diluted perspective on scripture by taking every translation we can get our hands on and cramming them all together to come up with a general consensus that agrees with all of them. How could it be possible to break it down to something that is a definate "Word" to use?
It would be the same thing as me being a reporter, and interviewing 20 different witnesses to a crime. Then after I finished interviewing everyone I decided that no one witness was any more credible than the other, so the only thing I report are weak statements that would not disagree with anything any of the witnesses said. I don't think I would be able to get very far, because nothing I ever reported would be specific enough to be counted on as truth.
The translators were definitely trying to point out something fantastic about his name specifically. Something that separated him from every other person alive.
Thanks for your perspective. Keep up the good work.
