Mishma is a personal name appearing in two distinct genealogical contexts in the Hebrew Bible. The name, possibly meaning 'hearing' or 'report,' identifies both an Ishmaelite tribal ancestor (son of Ishmael) and a Simeonite clan head. This dual usage reflects the common biblical pattern of names appearing across different tribal lineages. The Septuagint renders it as Masama or Masman, preserving the name in Greek transliteration. Though the name appears only in genealogical lists, it represents recognized family or clan identities preserved in Israel's tribal records.
