It wouldn't surprise me if it is named after the passage in scripture that describes the account of Jacob Wrestling with an angel. Genesis 32:30 says, "Hence Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, because, to quote him, 'I have seen God face to face and yet my soul was delivered.'" Peniel (or, Penuel) means "Face of God", and given the mysteries that are tied up with this gland, it would seem that whoever named it thought this was a fitting name.
