Jehoash
Proper name: Yehoash. A personal name borne by two kings in the Hebrew Bible—one a king of the northern kingdom of Israel (2 Kings 13–14), another a king of the southern kingdom of Judah (2 Kings 11–12; 2 Chronicles 22–24). The name’s formation suggests a theophoric element, invoking YHWH as the divine component. The full semantic range is that of a theophoric personal name, not a general noun or verb.
