	In his notes on ''[[Book of Abramelin]]'', [[Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers]] offers etymologies for both names (Atiron and Egin), with the former being suggested as being either derived from the Hebrew root "orh", meaning to lay bare, or from the Greek word "arhreton", meaning secret or mysterious. The latter is suggested as being derived from the Hebrew "ogn", meaning to hinder, or from the Greek "aix" or "aigos" meaning goat. David Crowhurst in his ''Stella Daemonum'' offers an alternative etymology, suggesting that the name Equi may be derived from the Latin "equus", an alternative rendering of the constellation Pegasus in addition to being the word for "horse", and that the name Ariton may be derived from the name of Pegasus' sibling, Arion.
