Avshalom (Father of Peace)
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun; shortened form of אֲבִישָׁלוֹם (ʾĂvîshalom, "my father is peace"). No pronominal suffix in this shortened form; compound construct name formed from noun + noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines אָב (father) and שָׁלוֹם (peace, wholeness), yielding the meaning "Father of Peace." As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), the rendering preserves its personal-name function while transparently conveying the underlying root meanings. |
