==The root for "naham" means "to mourn"==

Nephi's party reaches an area "which was called Nahom" ([http://scriptures.lds.org/en/1_ne/16/34#34 1 Nephi 16:34])near the time that they make an eastward turn in their journey. <ref>{{JBMS-12-1-13}}</ref>

<blockquote>
It [the root for ''naham''] appears twenty-five times in the narrative books of the Bible, and in every case it is associated with death. In family settings, it is applied in instances involving the death of an immediate family member (parent, sibling, or child); in national settings, it has to do with the survival or impending extermination of an entire people. At heart, naham means "to mourn," to come to terms with a death; these usages are usually translated...by the verb "to comfort," as when Jacob's children try to comfort their father after the reported death of Joseph. <ref>David Damrosch, ''The Narrative Covenant'' (San Francisco: Harper and Row, 1987), 128&ndash;129.</ref>

It is intriguing that Nephi tells us that the deceased Ishmael was buried at a spot with a name associated with mourning and death of loved ones.
