Meshillemoth
me.shil.le.mot is a proper name borne by men identified as fathers in two genealogical contexts.
The attested form functions as a proper personal name in paternal identification: one man is named as Berechiah’s father, and another as the father in Amashsai’s ancestral line.

Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper and occur after "son of" relationships. In 2 Chronicles 28:12 the APB renders "Berechiah son of Meshillemoth" among Ephraimite leaders; in Nehemiah 11:13 it renders Amashsai’s line as "son of Ahzai son of Meshillemoth son of Immer."
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name unchanged in both verses, within paternal identifications: "son of Meshillemoth." It confirms the named-person context rather than supplying a lexical translation.
