only-begotten
Single offspring ever
Only-begotten means being the sole child of a parent—the one and only offspring.
The term appears almost exclusively in religious contexts, particularly in biblical translations describing Jesus as the only-begotten Son of God: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son.
The word emphasizes uniqueness and singular origin rather than simply being an only child.
Outside theological usage, it sounds archaic and formal.
