Meaning and history
Sheba is an English biblical name taken from the ancient kingdom mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, whose location is generally associated with Saba in southern Arabia and possibly the Horn of Africa. The place name’s original meaning is uncertain. The Queen of Sheba visits King Solomon to test his wisdom, a story developed further in Jewish, Christian, Islamic, and Ethiopian traditions. As a modern personal name it is rare; prominent real-life bearers are limited.
