A female given name used in English-speaking cultures, derived from Hebrew meaning 'married' or 'possessed.'
From Hebrew 'beulah,' appearing in the Biblical book of Isaiah to describe the land of Israel. Adopted as a given name by English speakers, particularly in Christian communities.
Beulah was hugely popular in the American South during the 1800s and early 1900s, and there are Beulah towns scattered across the US, making it a great example of how biblical names seeded themselves across a whole landscape.
