Inserting a hyphen in this word also better shows the relationship between the place and its founding king, Jacob. Both morphemes should also be capitalized, as in Lehi-Nephi and Anti-Nephi-Lehi. The names for Isaiah's two sons do not follow this capitalization pattern because they derive from sentences in Hebrew.
