Shilo

Shilo is a Hebrew name meaning 'place of peace' or 'peaceful one'. It is derived from the biblical town of Shiloh, which was an important religious and cultural center for the Israelites in ancient times.

According to the Bible, Shiloh was the location where the Tabernacle, a portable sanctuary housing the Ark of the Covenant, was set up after the Israelites entered the Promised Land. It was a place of worship and gathering for the tribes of Israel.

The name Shilo is often associated with a sense of tranquility, serenity, and spiritual significance. It has been used as a name for both boys and girls, although it is more commonly given to boys.

While Shilo is a relatively uncommon name, it has gained popularity in recent decades, particularly among parents seeking a unique and meaningful name with biblical roots and a peaceful connotation.
