ANTIOMNO Lamanite PN King of land of Middoni, 1st c. BC (Alma 20:4) If the name is to be divided into anti- and -omno, the first part of this PN, anti, may be the same element as in Anti-Nephi-Lehi. See the same for a discussion of anti. The second element, omno, could be from a root such as ʾmn, “faithfulness, firmness; craftsman, maker,” or ʿmn, with a 3m.s. pronominal suffix. Thus, Antiomno could mean “facing his faithfulness.” Cf. Book of Mormon Onti(es), Ani-Anti, Antion, Antionah, Antionum, Antiparah, Antipas, Antipus, Antum, Anti-Nephi-Lehi, Ammon
