Salmon

Morphological NotesNoun, masculine, singular; accusative (also attested nominative singular form in other occurrences). Indeclinable proper name in English rendering.
Rendering RationaleΣαλμών is a proper masculine personal name used solely for an Israelite ancestor in genealogies. As an accusative singular masculine noun, it functions as a direct object form of the name, but in English proper names do not change form by case, so "Salmon" faithfully preserves the morphology and identity.
