My Father is Might
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun (personal name), singular; compound of אֲבִי ("my father") + חַיִל ("might, strength"). Used for both male and female individuals. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name is a construct form combining אֲבִי ("my father") from אב with חַיִל ("might, strength, valor") from חיל. Rendering it as "My Father is Might" preserves both root elements and reflects the possessive first-person form embedded in the name. |
