Anthothijah, a Benjamite in the genealogies
This personal name appears in Benjamin's genealogy in Chronicles. The form suggests a connection to Anathoth, the Levitical city in Benjamin, with a theophoric ending '-yah' (Yahweh). The name might mean 'Yahweh has answered' or incorporate the place name Anathoth. Septuagint witnesses show varied transliteration attempts, with some simply reproducing Anathoth.
