St Simon is surnamed the Canaanean or Canaanite, and the Zealot, to distinguish him from St. Peter, and from St. Simeon, the brother of St. James the Less, and his successor in the see of Jerusalem. From the first of these surnames some have thought that St. Simon was born at Cana, in Galilee: certain modern Greeks pretend that it was at his marriage that our Lord turned the water into wine. It is not to be doubted but he was a Galilean.

The name of Simon occurs in all the passages of the Gospel and Acts, in which a list of the Apostles is given.

Both surnames have the same signification and are a translation of the Hebrew qana (the Zealous).
