Shilom Origin and Meaning

The name Shilom is a girl's name.

Shilom is an uncommon feminine name with possible Hebrew origins, potentially related to the Hebrew word "shalom" meaning "peace" or "wholeness." The name may also be connected to Shiloh, a biblical place name mentioned in the Book of Genesis that has been adopted as a given name in modern times. Shilom has very limited recorded usage, making it exceptionally rare. The name has a gentle, flowing sound with its two syllables and soft ending. In the Book of Mormon scripture, Shilom appears as a place name, which may explain some of its usage in communities connected to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Its rarity gives it a distinctive quality while its phonetic similarity to Shalom connects it to the beautiful concept of peace and completeness.
