Raymond Palmer (ME-1)

Trivia

 * Personality and history inspired by Indiana Jones, Carl Sagan, and Hank Pym from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
 * Raymond is a male given name. It was borrowed into English from French. It originated as the Germanic Raginmund or Reginmund. "Ragin" (Old German) and "regin" (Gothic) meant "counsel." The Old High German "mund" originally meant "hand," but came to mean "protection." This etymology suggests that the name originated in the Early Middle Ages, possibly from Latin.
 * Taking the initial meeting of "mund" as hand, rendering the name meaning as "counseling hand," the name references Raymond's role as a mentor to Lưu Hào Lực, the second Atom.
 * Palmer seemingly means a pilgrim to the Holy Land, named from the palm worn to signify the journey. And in early Scottish, a mercenary who traveled to the Holy Land and carried back palm leaves as a sign of proof.
 * This is meant to reference Palmer's pilgrimage to the Quantom Realm upon discovering the science of shrinking.
 * The full name Raymond Palmer was given to the Atom as an homage to science-fiction magazine editor Raymond A. Palmer.
