and Gift-of-Yah

Morphological NotesConjunction וּ ("and") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). The name is a theophoric compound formed from מַתָּת (gift, from נתן) + יָהּ (short form of the divine name).
Rendering RationaleThe name derives from the root נתן ("to give") through the noun מַתָּת ("gift"), combined with יָהּ ("Yah"). Rendering it as "Gift-of-Yah" preserves the root sense of giving and the theophoric element, while "and" reflects the prefixed conjunction (וּ). The form is a masculine singular proper noun, which is maintained in the singular name rendering.
