This doubling brings to mind the myth of the Golem from Jewish folklore, a anthropomorphic creature created from mud, by a pious person and animated either by writing one of the names of God on its forehead, or placing a slip of paper in its mouth sometimes known as a shem, or more significantly for the purpose of this article, writing the word emet (אמת, "truth" or reality in the Hebrew language) on its forehead. ❋ Heidi James-Dunbar (2010)

I do find it odd that he misses the whole "name"/"shem" as "authority" connection when formulating his arguments in that direction. ❋ James F. McGrath (2010)

After graduating she was sent by the Yidishe Shul in Meksike to attend a one-year program of studies (1955) at the Bet-Hamidrash le-Morey ha-Gola al-shem Hayyim Grinberg (Seminar for Teachers in the Diaspora) in Jerusalem. ❋ Unknown (2009)

A person who spreads slander or untrue negative information about a person is considered the lowest of the low -- a motzi shem ra -- one who delivers a bad name. ❋ Unknown (2009)
