Proper name attested in Genesis, 14:18 and in Psalms 110:4.

→ Ancient Greek: Μᾰκκᾰβαῖος (Makkabaîos)

→ Latin: Maccabaeus

→ English: Maccabee

Not conclusively known. The name, which was a personal epithet of Judas Maccabeus and not an inherited surname, may derive from the Aramaic [script needed] (makkaba, “hammer”), in reference to Judas’s ferocity in battle. Conversely, the traditional Jewish explanation is that מַכַּבִּי (makkabbī) is an acronym both of מִי־כָמֹכָה בָּאֵלִם יְהוָה (Mi chamocha ba’elim YHWH, “Who is like You among the heavenly powers, YHWH!”) — the Torah’s Exodus 15:11, which was the Maccabees’ battle-cry — and of מַתִּתְיָהוּ בֶּן יוֹחָנָן הַכֹּהֵן (Matityahu ben Yoḥanan HaKohen, “Mattathias”). Yet another possibility is that the name is a corruption of מַכְבַּנַּי (makebbanáy, “Machbanai”).

Heth
Heth#Arabic_ḥāʾ
Proto-Semitic language
Ḫāʾ

Cognate with Aramaic [script needed] (ḥ-m-s, “criminality, violence”), Akkadian [script needed] (ḫummusu, “to oppress”), [script needed] (ḫamsu, “maltreated”), [script needed] (ḫimsātu, “wrongful possessions”), and Arabic [script needed] (ḫamisa, “to be(come) hard, firm, strict, severe, afflictive”).
Semantically similar yet unrelated to Biblical Hebrew חמץ (“to oppress, to be ruthless”), Akkadian [script needed] (ḫamāṣu, “to tear off, to strip, to flay; to plunder, to ransack”), Classical Syriac [script needed] (ḥammeṣ, “to shame”), Sabaean [script needed] (ḫmṣ, “to deface (an inscription)”), and Ge'ez [script needed] (ʕammaḍa, “to do wrong, do violence, injure, harm”).
Unlikely related to Arabic حَمَاس (ḥamās, “zeal”), as Akkadian cognates suggest Proto-Semitic initial *ḫ-, whence Hebrew ḫ- > ḥ- and Arabic ḫ-, not ḥ-.

(Jewish law) to rob with violence

איזבל

he-proper noun

אִיזֶבֶל • ('izével) f

אִיזֶבֶל (canonical)
'izével (romanization)

From אִי and זְבֻל.
Sense Uncertain. Seemingly "not exalted" or "not husbanded" in the sense of shame or lawlessness, likely an intentional alteration of a Punic name attested 𐤁𐤏𐤋𐤀𐤆𐤁𐤋 (b‘l’zbl), בעלאזבל ('Ba'al is exalted'.) Formerly it was thought to bear the sense, through "not husbanded", of "chaste" or "modest". The European name Isabel is similar in transliteration but is unrelated.
An alternative explanation is from אֵיזֶה and בַּעַל (’ēyze ba’al) meaning "Where is Ba'al?" Perhaps was a ritualistic chant during Ba'al worship.
