Acheyo
and Ahio
Proper noun; personal name meaning 'his brother.' Used as the name of three distinct Israelite men in the Hebrew Bible. The form suggests a familial relationship, identifying the bearer as 'brother of him/his brother,' with the referent dependent on narrative context. As a name, it does not independently convey 'brother' in the general noun sense but might indicate the child’s familial ties or honor a brotherly relationship.

SIBI-P1 Translation H283-01
and His-Brother
| Morphological Notes | Proper masculine singular noun (personal name) with prefixed conjunction וְ; built from noun אָח with 3ms suffix יוֹ. |
| Rendering Rationale | The proper name derives from אָח (brother) with the 3ms pronominal suffix "-his," forming "his brother." The prefixed וְ adds "and," so the rendering preserves both the conjunction and the root-based personal name meaning. |
