Lehite PN | 1. | General, ca. 4th c. AD (Mormon 6:13) |
Etymology
For the reduplication of gd, see Numbers 33:32, Hor-hagidgad.[1] GIDGIDDONI and GIDGIDDONAH may somehow be derived from or related to the biblical Gidgad/Gudgodah (Judges 20:45, Deuteronomy 10:7), and perhaps to Hor-hagidgad, “Hollow of Gidgad” (Numbers 33:32-33), which may be the same location as Arabic Wadi Ghadhaghedh.[2] A connection with GID, GIDDIANHI, GIDDONAH, GIDGIDDONI seems unavoidable.
ḏd-ḏh.wt-iw-f + ʿnh., “Thoth hath said: he shall live,” and ḏd-ḏh.wti-iw-s + ʿnh., “Thoth hath said: she shall live.” On this pattern, the NEPHITE name would be EGYPTIAN dd-dḥ.wty-it-n3 + ʿnḫ., “Thoth hath said: We shall live.”[3]
See GID, GIDDONAH/GIDANAH, GIDDIANHI, GIDGIDDONI.

Notes
- ↑ It is quite common for Semitic “hollow” roots, such as gd, besides exhibiting long vowels, e.g., gād, to also have quadriliteral variants such as gdgd, as the above HEBREW GN demonstrates. Another similar example is biblical GILGAL from gl or glgl or gll.
