Who-Is-What-God-Is (masculine proper name)

Morphological NotesHebrew proper noun (HNp), masculine singular personal name; compound form from interrogative מִי and the divine title אֵל, with an implied relative element.
Rendering RationaleThe name combines מִי ("who?") with אֵל ("God") and reflects a rhetorical question about God's incomparability—"Who is what God is?" As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), the rendering preserves its personal-name function while expressing the full theological sense embedded in the components.
