Chakhemoni
of Hachmoni
A personal or clan name denoting an individual or descendant from the group called Hachmoni, likely indicating 'member of the Hachmonite clan' or 'belonging to Hachmoni.' Attested as an identifier for certain figures in the biblical narrative, notably a military officer associated with David's regime. The name itself is likely derived from a term signifying 'skillful' or 'wise,' though here it functions more as a clan or family designation than a descriptive adjective.
