- Solomon Meaning
- From the Hebrew name (Shelomoh) which was derived from Hebrew (shalom) "peace". Solomon was a king of Israel, the son of David, renowned for his wisdom. Supposedly, he wrote the Book of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and the Song of Solomon in the Old Testament. This name has never been overly common in the Christian world, and it is considered typically Jewish. Solomon is an Anglicized form of the Hebrew name "Shelomo", itself derived from the word "shalom", which means "peace".
