Unfortunately, not a GNT error fixed up by PNT, but at least more evidence that the Massoretic is stuffed... If LXX and POT come from pre-Mas, and both agree with PNT, I think that means Mas is not exactly the original

Right - when two independent witnesses like the P.O.T. and the LXX agree against the MSS, more likely that the MSS is wrong.

Along this topic of names - Isaiah also tells us:

Isaiah 9:6 Wrote:For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Because we Gentiles call Him by these names today (and ever since He came), it is a fulfillment of this prophecy. (Just like calling Him "Ammanu-El" - meaning, God took our Human Qnoma and became like us.)
