Tomislav here.
In the Hebrew Bible, several people are given names that are actually short sentences. For instance
Daniel :: "My judge is God"
Eliyahu :: "My God is Yah[weh]"
Mahersalalhashbaz :: "Quick to the plunder, quick to the spoil"
How would one create calque names like these in Lojban?

Daniel :: "My judge is God"
{la nu le cevni tu'a mi pajni}
My name is Daniel => {.i lu nu le cevni tu'a mi pajni cu cmene mi}
Eliyahu :: "My God is Yah[weh]"
{la nu la .adonais. cevni mi}
Mahersalalhashbaz :: "Quick to the plunder, quick to the spoil"
{la sutra be lo ka gunta e lo ka lebna} or something.
And various options to compress such names, e.g. {la gunta je lebna sutra} and then maybe even lujvo {gutyjvele'asutra} since the original is also kinda lujvo.

I confess I'm biased towards cmevla for names. If I would find someone called {la .paicev.} I would assume that his name refers to a judging God {pajni cevni}.
Similrarly for {la .ia'ycev.} if you want to keep a similar sound to Yah.
