Capturing elegance and depth, Balqis stands out as a meaningful name for your daughter. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Queen of Sheba', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

While popular in Arabic regions, Balqis has a modern appeal that transcends borders. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Balqis is the traditional name given to the Queen of Sheba, whose story with Prophet Sulaiman is told in the Quran (27:22-44). The name itself does not appear in the Quranic text, but comes from later Islamic historical tradition.
