# Ammiel: A Hebrew Personal Name Ammiel (עַמִּיאֵל) is a Hebrew proper noun appearing three times in the biblical text. Based on the name's linguistic components, it combines "ammi" (my people) with "El" (God), suggesting a meaning along the lines of "My People is God" or "God of My People." As a personal name rather than a common noun, it functioned as an identifier for specific individuals within ancient Israelite society. The limited frequency of this name—appearing only three times in the biblical corpus—indicates it was not among the most common personal names in ancient Israel, though it clearly held significance for those families who bore it. Without additional lexical data on the specific biblical contexts, we can note only that the name reflects a theophoric pattern (incorporating the divine name El) common in Hebrew naming conventions, suggesting religious meaning or blessing embedded in the family identity.
