 * You're thinking a- + damn, right? No. See the etymology at Adam. Equinox ◑ 03:03, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Missing sense: a jailer?
Chambers 1908 defines Adam as "a jailer". Probably a reference to the character in Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors. A quick search didn't turn up much for "an Adam" etc. Equinox ◑ 22:36, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
