  عَازِبٍ — 'Azib. The father's name as the second half of the 'son of' pairing, so it carries the 'of'-style ending. It tells you whose son the narrator is. The link is built purely by placing the names in sequence with no extra word.

• فَقَالَ لِعَازِبٍ ابْعَثِ ابْنَكَ يَحْمِلْهُ مَعِي

  He said to 'Azib, "Send your son to carry it with me."

  لِعَازِبٍ — to 'Azib. Preposition 'to/for' fused onto a man's name, marking him as the person spoken to. The preposition forces that name into the 'of'-style ending, and the trailing '-in' sound shows it is indefinite. So this single chunk identifies the addressee of the speech.
