Strong-One
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, feminine singular form derived from adjective עַז (strong, fierce) from root עזז. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form עַזָּה is a feminine singular proper name derived from the adjective עַז, built on the root עזז meaning "to be strong, to prevail." Rendering it as "Strong-One" preserves the root sense of strength while reflecting its adjectival origin and feminine singular form. |
