Onam; a proper name borne by a Horite chief and a Judahite clan head
A masculine proper name probably meaning 'vigorous' or 'strong,' carried by two Old Testament figures. The first Onam is a son of Shobal, one of the Horite chiefs of Seir listed in Genesis 36:23 and again in the parallel genealogy of 1 Chronicles 1:40. The second is a son of Jerahmeel in the tribe of Judah (1 Chr 2:26, 28). The name is consistently rendered across translations, from English and Spanish 'Onam' to French and German transliterations.

Senses
1. sense 1 — Onam — a personal name from a root suggesting vigor or strength. All four occurrences refer to named individuals in genealogical lists. English and Spanish consistently render 'Onam'; French and German transliterate the Hebrew directly. The Horite Onam (Gen 36:23; 1 Chr 1:40) belongs to the pre-Israelite clans of Edom, while the Judahite Onam (1 Chr 2:26, 28) appears in the Jerahmeelite line, illustrating how the same name could cross ethnic boundaries in the ancient Near East. 4×
