"mortal man") is a personal name attested in religious and historical sources: a genealogical figure in the Hebrew Bible, the eponymous author of the Book of Enos in the Book of Mormon tradition, and a historical Nestorian patriarch. The supplied sources treat Enos as an ordinary human name rather than a supernatural being.

In the Hebrew Bible corpus he is presented as a genealogical figure (the supplied sources identify him as such). The name is reused in later religious and historical contexts: as the title character and author of the Book of Enos within the Book of Mormon corpus, and as a personal name borne by a Nestorian patriarch listed in historical registers for the period between 877 and 884. The supplied materials treat the name's origin as linguistic (Hebrew אֱנוֹשׁ) rather than mythic.

No supernatural abilities or powers are attributed in the supplied sources.
