Morphological NotesPreposition לְ ("to/for") prefixed to a proper noun, masculine singular; no pronominal suffix. Functions as an indirect object or marker of relation.
Rendering RationaleThe name בִּנְיָמִין combines בֵּן (son) and יָמִין (right hand), meaning "Son of the Right Hand," a term connoting strength and favored position. The prefixed לְ preposition is preserved with "to," reflecting the HR/Np morphology (preposition + proper masculine singular noun).
