If an appeal to biblical Hebrew can be made to provide etymologies for [[JAREDITES|J<small>AREDITE</small>]] names, compare the biblical PN *Jakim/Jaqim. Also possible would be Hebrew ''yaqûm'',
“he shall arise,” e.g., the PN ''yqmyhw'' on a 7th c. BC ostracon from Arad (IDAM no. 67–992) (JAT). See also Shmuel Ahituv, ''Echoes from the Past'', Arad ostracon 39:1, ''yәqamyāhû''. Reynolds, Commentary on the Book of Mormon, VI, p. 116, already
made a similar suggestion.
