Mahalath is a biblical feminine name of Hebrew origin found in the Old Testament. It appears as the name of Esau's wife (Genesis 28:9) and also as a daughter of Jerimoth, who became one of King Rehoboam's wives (2 Chronicles 11:18). The meaning is somewhat debated, with interpretations including "sickness," "stringed instrument," or possibly "dance." The musical connection seems most likely, as "Mahalath" also appears in the titles of Psalms 53 and 88, possibly referring to a melody or musical instruction. While never common as a given name, Mahalath has occasionally been used by those seeking a distinctive biblical name with historical resonance. Its unusual sound and cadence give it an exotic quality among biblical names, though its usage remains quite rare in contemporary naming practices.
