The actor had his source of inspiration.
Nicolas Cage was a big fan of “Superman”, and his love for the hero influenced decision-making processes. Even the star’s family members got involved.
Nicolas and his wife wanted their son’s name to be something good, unique, and American. So, considering the actor’s unwavering devotion to the fictional character, he called his child Kal-El. It fit the bill and had a nice ring to it. Kal-El’s the first child of Cage with his wife, Alice.
"Alice and I wanted to have a name that was exotic and American, and which stood for something good, because our son is exotic and he’s American, and we both think he’s good. But having said that, I always liked the sound of the name. It has kind of a magical ring to it: Abracadabra Kal-El Shazam!"
