Origin:
akkadian (babylonian)
Name Root:
Līlīṯu > Lîlîṯ (lil > Lil-itu)
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Hebrew “Lîlîṯ,” traced to the Akkadian (Babylonian) reconstruction of “Līlīṯu.” In turn, the Hebrew name “Lilith or Lilit” means “night creatures, night monster, night hag, a screech owl.” Lilith is a Hebrew name for a figure in Jewish mythology, developed earliest in the Babylonian Talmud, who is generally thought to be in part derived from a historically far earlier class of female demons Līlīṯu in Mesopotamian Religion, found in Cuneiform texts of Sumer, Akkad, Assyria, and Babylonia. Another possibility is identifying the Akkadian “Lil-itu” as a loan from the Sumerian “lil,” meaning “air,” specifically from “Ninlil,” meaning “lady air, goddess of the south wind.”
