    I am not so sure they know what the name means... "The Grace of Ba'al" or "The favourite of Ba'al", if I am not mistaken... Maybe not so convenient for the son of the ruler of a state with a monotheistic state religion...

    Anyway, others tried before to bring shame to that name, as we all know too well. Roman propaganda and Roman historians, for example.
