Meshullemeth is a Biblical Hebrew feminine name from the root sh‑l‑m, source of shalom “peace, wholeness.” As the feminine counterpart of Meshullam, it means “recompensed,” “repaid,” or “made complete.” In the Hebrew Bible (2 Kings 21:19), Meshullemeth is named as the mother of King Amon of Judah, serving as queen mother in the late seventh century BCE.

Transliteration varies across editions: Meshullemeth (KJV), Meshulemeth, and the scholarly Mešullémet. Related names from the same root include Meshullam (masculine), Shulamit/Shulamith, Shlomit, and Shelomith. Usage has been rare outside Jewish and academic circles, but the name’s sense of being “made whole/rewarded” gives it a resonant, restorative tone tied to peace and completeness. Contemporary parents more often choose the shorter cognates Shulamit or Shlomit, yet Meshullemeth remains the original, textually anchored form for those seeking a distinctive biblical choice.
