My-Father-is-Strength
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun; personal name in construct form (אֲבִי + חַיִל), with first-person singular pronominal sense embedded in the form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name is a construct form combining אֲבִי ("my father of") from אב with חַיִל ("strength, valor"). Rendering it as "My-Father-is-Strength" preserves both root elements and reflects the possessive morphology embedded in the name. |
