(ba'ar 194) declare, make plain, with as derivative 
(le 1063), a particle denoting direction, position, relation or possession. In this case, the letter denotes relation or even possession: of.
(hay 644a) an adjective meaning living. Sometimes it is used to mean kinsfolk/ family, as in 1 Sam 18:18
(ra'a 2095) means to see, look at, and, much as in English, came to serve meanings such as understand (Aha, I see...). The final word in our name is 
(2095 e, f), which certainly can be the third person of the verb (he sees), but is also identical to the noun that means appearance and even mirror.
