Brother-of-Mother (masculine proper name)

Morphological NotesMasculine singular proper noun; compound name formed from אָח (brother) and אֵם (mother). Functions as a personal name without pronominal suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe name combines אָח (brother) and אֵם (mother), literally expressing "brother of mother," an idiom for a maternal uncle. As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), the rendering preserves its personal-name function while transparently reflecting its kinship roots.
