Shlomi (Hebrew name)

Shlomi or Shelomi is a Hebrew name (שלומי or in its Biblical spelling שלמי).

It appears in the Bible[1] once, in Numbers 34:27 as the father of Ahihud, the leader of the Tribe of Asher.

[2] It also serves as a substitute or pet form of the more traditional name Shlomo (שלמה).

[citation needed] The correct Biblical pronunciation is with the stress on the "mi", but most Israelis pronounce it with the stress on the "lo".

Shlomi is also an Israeli development town in the north-west of Israel.
