Salomee is Greek, Hebrew, Latin in Origin.
Salomee is a modern, less common variant of Salome/Salomé, ultimately from Hebrew shalom "peace." Through Greek Salome and Latin Salome, the name spread in Jewish and early Christian circles. The double-e spelling appears in Dutch and German records and occasionally elsewhere in Northern Europe, often chosen to signal a long final vowel or to avoid the accent of Salomé.
The name has deep biblical resonance: Salome is named among the women who witnessed the Crucifixion and discovered the empty tomb, while the Herodian princess famous in later legend is identified as Salome by Josephus. Medieval Europe favored the form Salomea, notably Blessed Salomea of Poland; Georgia has long used Salome. Aesthetic revivals followed Oscar Wilde's play and Strauss's opera. Related forms and cognates include Salome, Salomé, Salomè (It.), Salomea (Pol.), Salomėja (Lith.), Shlomit/Shulamit (Heb.). Meaning centers on "peace" and wholeness.
