When I look at the Jewish tradition as it is accessible to me, I see a connection of Purim with lots. In Esther chapter 3:7 they talk about lots.
In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, one cast the pur-that is the lot-before Haman from day to day and from month to month, to the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar.
I would assume that at least one meaning of Purim is lots. It might be worth asking and answering why.
