Chadad
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (personal name). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine proper name derived from the root חדד (to be sharp, fierce). As it functions exclusively as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, it is rendered as a transliterated name while preserving its root connection to sharpness in etymology rather than converting it into a descriptive adjective. |
