SaN.1. Another rendering might be God wrestler. The Online Etymological Dictionary finds that Israel is derived from the words El (=God) and sara (=contend, fight).
SaN.2. The received text has their, perhaps because the original saying was, "Woe to them of whom all men speak well." The logic of the sentence requires the second-person your, rather than the third-person their.
