What is the meaning of the name Baalath ?

The baby name Baalath is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced bah-AH-lath.

Baalath is Hebrew in Origin.

Baalath is the feminine form of the Northwest Semitic title Baʿal, from Hebrew בעלת (Baʿalat), meaning “lady,” “mistress,” or “female possessor,” derived from the root b-ʿ-l “to own, rule.” Common scholarly transliterations include Ba‘alat, Ba’alath, and Baalat; cognate titles appear as Ugaritic bʿlt and Akkadian Bēlit/Belti (“Lady”). Pronounced roughly BAH-uh-lath.

In biblical and Levantine contexts the name functions chiefly as a toponym and divine epithet rather than a personal name. The Hebrew Bible mentions Baalath as a fortified city in the territory of Dan during Solomon’s reign (1 Kings 9:18; 2 Chronicles 8:6) and Baalath-beer in Simeon (Joshua 19:8). In Phoenician religion Ba‘alat (“Lady of Byblos”) was a prominent city-goddess. As a given name Baalath is extremely rare today; its strong mytho-religious associations may feel bold, while its core sense of “lady” lends an elegant, authoritative aura.
