Traditionally in Kryptionian, 'El' means star and 'Kal' means child - so Kal El would be 'Star Child'. However, extending the meaning of El - 'Child of God'. (Also, traditionally, Krypton's creator god was named Rao and so was their star.)
Thanks for the info! I knew about Rao from AnitK, from a fic she beta'd for me, but I had no idea about the "Star Child" meaning.
