Adoniqam
Adonikam
Proper noun, personal name: Adonikam. The primary meaning is a personal name borne by an Israelite leader whose descendants are mentioned among those returning from Babylonian exile (Ezra 2:13; Nehemiah 7:18; Ezra 8:13). The name itself, based on its components, conveys the sense 'my lord has arisen' or 'the lord rises,' but as a proper name, it functions as an identity marker rather than conveying a definitive statement.

My-Lord-Has-Arisen
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular personal name (HNp); compound of possessive noun "my lord" + Qal perfect form "has arisen." |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines אֲדֹנִי ("my lord") from אדנ with קָם ("has arisen") from קום. Rendering it as "My-Lord-Has-Arisen" preserves both root elements while reflecting its form as a compound personal name. |
