Reply to: Meaning of the name Belquiz by Pnut
Hi there - My mother's name is Bilquis. (Pronounced Billkeese -the 'keese' rhymes with geese). This is Arabic in origin and believed to be the name of the Queen of Sheba. I believe that there is a Hebrew version of the name pronounced in the same way but spelled Balkeez.

Hope this helps.
