Genesis 32:27-28
New Living Translation
27 “What is your name?” the man asked.
He replied, “Jacob.”
28 “Your name will no longer be Jacob,” the man told him. “From now on you will be called Israel,[a] because you have fought with God and with men and have won.”

- 32:28 Jacob sounds like the Hebrew words for “heel” and “deceiver.” Israel means “God fights.”
