الْبَرْمَكِيِّ al-Barmaki
This is a 'belonging-to-a-tribe/family' adjective, formed by adding a -iyy ending to a clan name to mean 'of the so-and-so family'. It rounds off the full name and stays in the genitive to agree with the names it describes. Arabic turns places, tribes, and families into such relational adjectives with this one suffix.
