    The supplied morphology identifies the form as a proper noun. In Genesis 46:16 the APB renders it within the list of Gad's sons as “Haggi”; in Numbers 26:15 it again renders “Haggi” before naming “the clan of the Haggites,” presenting the name in a clan-list context.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Haggi” in both verses. In Numbers 26:15, the surrounding clause also gives the related clan label “the Haggites,”.
