Enoch

/ˈɛnɔk/ noun

A biblical figure who was taken by God without experiencing death, or used as a proper name; also slang in some dialects for being put on the blacklist or excluded.

From Hebrew 'Hanokh,' meaning 'dedicated' or 'initiated.' In the Bible, Enoch is taken directly to heaven without dying. The slang usage 'doing an Enoch' comes from British politics and rhyming slang references.
