Im sorry but my own personally opinion it sounds like a dogs name Ive known many dogs named shiloh so im sorry but I would never name a child after a dog!

I really don't think she is naming her after a dog.

I have heard lots of dogs named after people, and some of the people were not necessarily likeable, so I guess we could say we are sorry for the dog. LOL

here is a little history on the name:


"The boy's and girl's name Shiloh \sh(i)-loh\ is pronounced SHYE-loh. It is of Hebrew origin, and its meaning is "His gift". Also possibly "he who was sent". Biblical: a prophetic name for the Messiah, Shiloh is also significant as the site of a crucial battle in the American Civil War."

Yes, there were some movies about a dog named shiloh, but I bet there are more people with the name.

Go for it!!

Thanks Suzie =) I needed that.

Go for it. I love this name, LOVE!! People are overly opinionated about what other people name their children. Any negative comments about the name (for whatever reason) will fade away when they see a gorgeous little girl looking up at them with the name Shiloh.

Good luck.

I like the name Shiloh, its not copying Brad and Angelina its a name its free to use. Im naming my child Harlow and thats Nicole Ritchies baby's name but i didnt name Harlow after her daughter Go for it and good luck !
