Salome
Salome (Greek: Σαλώμη Salōmē, pronounced [salóːmeː">) (c. AD 14 – between 62 and 71) was the daughter of Herod II and Herodias. She is infamous for demanding and receiving the head of John the Baptist, according to the New Testament. According to Flavius Josephus's Jewish Antiquities, Salome was first married to Philip the Tetrarch of Ituraea and Trakonitis. After Philip's death in 34 AD she married Aristobulus of Chalcis and became queen of Chalcis and Armenia Minor. They had three children. Three coins with portraits of Aristobulus and Salome have been found.
Her name in Hebrew is שלומית (Shlomiẗ, pronounced [ʃlomiθ">) and is derived from the root word שָׁלוֹם (shalom), meaning "peace".
