Seir (Rugged-Hairy One)

Morphological NotesMasculine singular proper noun (place name). The form is an adjectival noun meaning "hairy/rough one," used as a toponym.
Rendering RationaleThe name שֵׂעִיר derives from the root שׂער, meaning "hairy" or "rough." As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), it designates a specific place characterized by rugged, bristling terrain. Rendering it as "Seir (Rugged-Hairy One)" preserves both its status as a proper name and its descriptive root sense.
