Salome

Some names have that extra special element, like Salome, which almost sounds like its meaning: "peace." It is commonly pronounced as Sa-LOW-me or Sa-lo-MAY, emphasizing the second or third syllable accordingly. This beautiful Hebrew name has biblical roots, as Salome was the woman who dances for King Herod and demanded John the Baptist's head as her reward. It derives from the Hebrew word "Shalom," which means wholeness, harmony, safety, and peace. The idea of baby growing up in a harmonious, peaceful environment and feeling a sense of completeness is surely every parent's dream!
