Hasty-One
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (personal name). The -ַי ending reflects the conventional form of the name Maharai; it functions as a fixed proper name rather than indicating plurality or possession in this usage. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the root מהר (m-h-r), meaning "to hasten" or "to be swift." As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), it designates a male individual characterized by swiftness, hence "Hasty-One," preserving both the root sense and the singular masculine form. |
