In 1 Chronicles 1:50 and Genesis 36:39, the form is tagged Noun · Proper and occurs in the clause naming the wife of the succeeding ruler; the APB renders her as “Mehetabel daughter of Matred daughter of Mezahab.” In Nehemiah 6:10, the same proper-name tagging occurs within Shemaiah's ancestry; the APB renders “Shemaiah son of Delaiah son of Mehetabel.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Mehetabel” in each verse: as a wife's name in 1 Chronicles 1:50 and Genesis 36:39, and as an ancestor's name in Nehemiah 6:10. This follows the verse-level translation.
