Exegesis
The object of this calling is expressed by the accusative to onoma {τὸ ὄνομα | tò ó-no-ma} with the genitive kuriou {κυρίου | ku-rí-ou}, “the name of the Lord,” a Semitic-influenced idiom in which “name” represents the person and authority of the Lord Himself.
In context — Acts 2:21
And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved .
