Mijamin
miy.ya.min is a proper name used for an individual named in priestly and genealogical lists.
The attested forms function as a proper name in lists: in 1 Chronicles 24:9 it is assigned a place in an ordered allotment, while Ezra 10:25, Nehemiah 10:8, and Nehemiah 12:5 place the name among groups of people, including priests.

All four occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper and occur as list entries. In 1 Chronicles 24:9 the APB renders an allotment in which “the sixth” goes to the named person; in Ezra 10:25 it renders the name within a sequence from the sons of Parosh, and Nehemiah 10:8 and Nehemiah 12:5 place it among named priests or adjacent names.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the form as “Mijamin” in 1 Chronicles 24:9, Ezra 10:25, and Nehemiah 12:5; Nehemiah 10:8 gives the surrounding priestly list without displaying that name in English. This variation does not establish a different use.
