Naming: God or Adam's role?

The other day I came across this teaching in the Qur'an.

Allah taught Adam all the names of everything

( 2:31, Qur'an). And it seemed really significant in terms of the difference to Genesis 2 where God leads the animals to Adam to see what Adam will name them. I won't spell it out, but you might like to check out my comments on the Genesis story to infer my own thoughts (also here).
