Yemimah — personal name of Job's daughter (Job 42:14)
This name belongs to Job's first daughter, born after his restoration. The name may relate to 'dove,' suggesting gentleness or beauty. Job's naming of his daughters (all three names are preserved) after his restoration contrasts with the absence of his sons' names, possibly highlighting their beauty and the father's delight in his restored family.
