Herod is primarily a name, specifically associated with several rulers of Judea during the time of the Roman Empire, most notably Herod the Great. While it is not a title, the name has become synonymous with the governance and policies of these rulers. In historical contexts, the term "Herodian" may refer to things related to the Herodian dynasty, but "Herod" itself is a personal name rather than a title.
