OET (OET-RV) Then his brother was born and his hand grabbed Esaw’s heel, so he was named ‘Yacob’ (which means ‘heel-grabber’). Yitshak was sixty years old when they were born.
יָצָ֣א אָחִ֗יו
he/it_went_forth his/its=woman
Some languages have a specific term for a younger brother that fits here. See what you did in Gen 4:2.
וַיִּקְרָ֥א שְׁמ֖וֹ
and=he/it_called his/its=name
See how you translated a similar clause in verse 25 that probably has the same meaning. Alternate translation: “So they called him” or “So he was named”

יַעֲקֹ֑ב
Yaakob
If you decide to include the meaning of Jacob’s name in the text or in a footnote, make sure it matches the way you translate grabbing earlier in this sentence.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְיִצְחָ֛ק בֶּן שִׁשִּׁ֥ים שָׁנָ֖ה
and,Isaac son_of sixty year
See how you translated the idiom “was a son of … years” in verse 20.
בְּלֶ֥דֶת אֹתָֽם
in/on/at/with,gave_birth_to DOM=them
Alternate translation: “when Rebekah gave birth to them.”
25:26 The name Jacob (Hebrew ya‘aqob, from Hebrew ‘aqeb, “heel, footprint”) was originally positive, meaning “protect” (like a rear guard), but it took on the negative meaning of “heel grabber” or “deceiver” in the context of Jacob’s deceptive, grasping, usurping character (see 27:36).
OET (OET-LV) And_after thus he_came_out his/its_woman and_hand_his [was]_holding in/on/at/with_heel of_ˊĒsāv and_he/it_called his/its_name Yaˊₐqoⱱ/(Jacob) and_Yiʦḩāq/(Isaac) [was]_a_son of_sixty year[s] in/on/at/with_gave_birth_to DOM_them.
OET (OET-RV) Then his brother was born and his hand grabbed Esaw’s heel, so he was named ‘Yacob’ (which means ‘heel-grabber’). Yitshak was sixty years old when they were born.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
