Leviathan is a name one doesn’t see often, but that makes it all the more appealing. Of Hebrew origin, this title is derived from the term liwyah, which means “garland” or “wreath.” Many people will also recognize the name from the Old Testament, where the mythological sea serpent carries the name Leviathan. An important mythological creature, the Leviathan, is given as food to the Hebrews as they cross the desert. Despite its varying history, Leviathan has a modern sound.
