Ammihud is Hebrew in Origin.
Ammihud is a biblical Hebrew name (ʿAmmîhūd, עַמִּיהוּד) built from ʿammi, “my people/kinsman,” and hūd/hod, “splendor, majesty,” yielding senses such as “my people is glory” or “kinsman of majesty.” The name belongs to the family of Hebrew compounds that express communal identity and honor rather than invoking a deity, and it conveys pride in lineage or tribe.
Across the Hebrew Bible it designates several figures: the father of Elishama, leader of the tribe of Ephraim (Numbers 1:10), the father of Pedahel, chief of Naphtali (Numbers 34:28), and an ancestor in the Jerusalem genealogies after the exile (1 Chronicles 9:4). Transliterations vary by tradition: Ammihud is standard in English; Amihud or Amihoud occur in modern Hebrew and Romance contexts; the Septuagint renders it Amioud. In contemporary usage the name is rare as a given name but found in Israel, sometimes as a surname; Ami can serve as a short form.
