Mebunnai
Holman Bible Dictionary
(mih buhn' nee) Personal name meaning, “building of Yah.” One of David's thirty elite warriors (2 Samuel 23:27 ). The name possibly resulted from scribal confusion of the first and third letters in the Hebrew name Sibbecai which replaces Mebunnai in the parallel lists (1 Chronicles 11:29; 1 Chronicles 27:11 ).
