Naamah is a feminine personal name, meaning possibly 'pleasant' or 'lovely,' borne by two women in Scripture. First, she was the sister of Tubal-Cain in the antediluvian genealogy of Cain—the only woman named in that line besides Eve, suggesting some significance though her role is unexplained. Second, and more prominently, she was an Ammonite princess who became one of Solomon's wives and mother of King Rehoboam. Her foreign origin may have contributed to Solomon's syncretistic worship practices condemned in Kings. The Septuagint uses various Greek spellings (Noema, Maacham, Naama) for different occurrences.
