Eshton
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (personal name); no pronominal suffix or verbal stem; simple onomastic form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular proper name used onomastically in genealogical material. Since it functions purely as a personal name and not as a transparent lexical derivative, it is best preserved by transliteration rather than imposing a speculative root meaning. |
