What would be implied by a person or culture (possibly, but not necessarily, one of the Fair Folk) addressing people as "Daughter of Adam" and "Son of Eve"?

Except that God regularly addresses Ezekiel as "Ben Adam."

And Israelis address each other (of all genders) as "benadam" all the time. It's sort of like calling someone "man" or "dude." Not as affectionate as calling them "achi" (my brother) or "achoti" (my sister), which is another thing Israelis like to call each other.
