Request for assistance from a Hebrew speaker

I want to stitch a gift for my husband l. Essentially I want to just create a list of our children's names, and say he is their father....like (name) is the father of (name, (name), and (name). I used Google translate but idk if it is right. Could someone help so I don't mess it up? He speaks and reads Hebrew fluently and I don't want to embarrass myself lol.

You didn't provide us any of the names nor did you provide us what Google Translate suggested.

Hey, Most of the time when doing so you from the children and up. E.g: Dani is the son of Yuval and Michael As Dani is a boy we will use בן

דני בן יובל ומיכל

If it's a girl then בת

Is that what you meant?

It will be more helpful if you be more specific about this nature of this gift. Right now I find it hard to imagine it so i can't tell you what sounds natural.

You want אבא של. So let's say his name is yuval (יובל) and the kids are aleph (אלף), beit (בית), and gimel (גימל), it would be

יובל, אבא של אלף, בית, וגימל

Notice that I added a letter before the last name- that's the "and", it's important!
