The original version of the myth is Babylonian. It used the name Aton.
Adam was the closest word the Hebrews could find phonetically.
----------
Enki's identity, as Lord of Earth or In Earth (EN.KI), also known as EA ("whose house is water") is reflected in other names, as well: Adonai, Ptah, Aton, Aten, Adom, Adam, Amen. I have a theory that Enki might have been the father of Judaism. (Linguistic paleontology is a marvelous and vast area for proving these connections.) The name EARTH also comes from EA/Enki. Actually, the name "earth" can be traced to Enki (a.k.a. EA), and "human" is related to Ninharsag/Ninhursag, who was Hathor (the House of Horus): HU (Horus) is also a transliteration of the ancient Sumerian EA (Grimms' law of interchangeable letters and sounds). If we use Hebrew, HU means "she."

I WAS going to answer tha red soil probably contains a lot of clay, which is obviously better for "forming" things. Try it with loam sometime, and you'll see what I mean.

But Alfalfa's answer sounds much more likely, and certainly more interesting.
