The name that is transliterated as «Bigthan» in English means «gift of fortune,» «giving meat,» «A giver of pastry,» «in their winepress.» (Source: Cornwall / Smith 1997 )

In Libras (Brazilian Sign Language) it is translated with a sign that shows that he is an officer of the king (why the signal was made at the shoulder); the X shape reflects this character’s wickedness; and the circular motion is inspired by the meaning of the name: “in the winepress.” (Source: Missão Kophós )
