Shiloh is Hebrew in Origin.
Shiloh is an English biblical name from Hebrew, attached first to the ancient Israelite sanctuary written שילה, שילו, and שלה in the Hebrew Bible and vocalized Shiloh or Shilo. For the place-name, lexicons connect it with the root שלה, sh-l-h, associated with quietness, ease, or prosperous rest, giving the literal sense tranquility or place of rest. Genesis 49:10 preserves a disputed form read in some traditions as he whose it is.
As a given name, Shiloh was rare in English-speaking records before the late twentieth century, shaped more by biblical geography than by saintly or royal use. The Ephraimite site housed the tabernacle before Jerusalem, and the 1862 Battle of Shiloh added an American place-name association. Spellings such as Shilo, Shylo, and Shilow occur in modern use. In the United States it entered the girls Top 1000 in 2007, shortly after Shiloh Jolie-Pitt’s birth, while retaining occasional male use.
