All three occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Nehemiah 10:7 the APB renders a sequence of names, “Meshullam, Abijah, Mijamin,”; in Nehemiah 12:4 it includes “Iddo, Ginnethon, and Abijah”; and in Nehemiah 12:16 it renders “Meshullam for Ginnethon.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly includes “Ginnethon” in Nehemiah 12:4 and Nehemiah 12:16, while Nehemiah 10:7 gives a surrounding name list without that English name. Its handling of the individual Hebrew form in Nehemiah 10:7 is unclear.
