Lehite PN 1. Historian, ca. 306 AD (4 Nephi 1:47; Mormon 4:23)

AMMARON could be a variant of AMARON (see above). However, if the double m is to be taken seriously, then ʿm ʾrwn, “people of the ark,” is not impossible (JH), but hardly plausible.

AMMARON is also spelled AMORON (OM Alma 54:1) and AMMORON (OM and PM Alma 54:16, 23; 55:1–2; 56:18, 20; 57:1, 3; 59:7).

Notes

It is interesting that both AMARON and AMMARON were Nephite scribes/historians, though separated in time by many centuries (JAT).

Cf. Book of Mormon AMARON, AMMORON, AMORON, MORON, MORONI, MORONIHAH, EMRON, EMER, OMER, AMULEK (vs. MULEK)
