[Just mythoughts]

Well, kind of. In Hebrew "dam" means blood and "adamah" means earth, and they're sort of related because in parts of the Middle East (just like here in Tennessee) there's a lot of brownish-red clay.

The word dam is used 5 times in the Bible, at least translated to the usage of the word dam. My Strong's refers to Hebrew number 517 and is a prim. word; a mother as the bond of the family); in a wide sense (both lit. and fig.) [like 1]: - dam, mother, x parting.

Whereas the word aw-dawm' Hebrew number 119; to show blood (in the face), i.e. flush or turn rosy: - be dyed, made) red (ruddy):

Hebrew number 120; from 119; ruddy, i.e., a human being (an individual or the species, mankind, etc.): - x another, + hypocrite, + common sort, x low, man (mean, of low degree), person.

Hebrew number 121; the same as 120; Adam, the name of the first man, also of a place in Pal.: -Adam.

Hebrew number 122; from 119; rosy:-red, ruddy.

Hebrew number 123; ed-ome'; or (fully) from 122; red [see Genesis 25:25]; Edom, the elder twin-brother of Jacob; hence the region (Idumaea) occupied by him: - Edom, Edomites, Idumea.

etc, etc, etc, etc,

Instead of H517, (which strikes me as perhaps an etymological source of “dame”) is the blood reference linked to H1818, DAWM ?
