ke.ran is used as a proper name in two genealogical lists, identifying a son of Dishon.

The attested use is a proper name: in both genealogical lists, the form identifies one of Dishon’s sons alongside Hemdan, Eshban, and Ithran.

Senses in use

  1. Proper name in Dishon’s family list · dominant

    The form is tagged as a proper noun in both occurrences and appears in lists of Dishon’s sons. In 1 Chronicles 1:41 the APB renders the list, “The sons of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran”; Genesis 36:26 presents the same family relation.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the name as “Cheran” within a list of Dishon’s sons. This reflects the verse-level presentation rather than a precise lexical rendering.
