Beth-Baalmeon is Hebrew in Origin.
Beth-Baalmeon is a compound Northwest Semitic name built from beth “house/temple,” ba‘al “lord; Baal,” and me‘on/ma‘ôn “dwelling, habitation.” It therefore denotes “House (Temple) of Baal at the Habitation,” often understood as “house of the lord of Meon.” The form reflects Hebrew and Moabite toponymic patterns, where beth marks a sanctuary or settlement attached to a deity or patron.
Attested as a Moabite/Reubenite town east of the Jordan in the Hebrew Bible (Numbers 32:38; Joshua 13:17; Jeremiah 48:23) and on the 9th‑century BCE Mesha Stele, the site’s theophoric element was sometimes altered or suppressed, yielding Baal‑meon, Beth‑meon, or Beon. Modern transliterations include Beth-Baal-Meon and Bethbaalmeon. As a given name it is extremely rare and chiefly antiquarian; parents favoring biblical place-names might prefer shortened variants (Beth-Meon, Meon) due to Baal’s pagan associations.
Beth-Baalmeon does not appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. This usually means it's either extremely rare, a regional/traditional name not captured by official statistics, or a brand-new coinage. Use it knowing your child will almost certainly be the only one in the room.
