Yes, it really was extremely common! Slightly less common than Sarah, though. I think Sarah made the top 5 which Rebecca didn't and also the alternate spelling of Sara entered the top 50 while Rebekah etc didn't. Yes, I see. There were two Salomes in the Bible if I remember correctly and there is also a saint by this name. I love the meaning of peace. I wonder why Salome is always remembered as being horrible while Rebecca and Sarah also did horrible things but are remembered as good (see the post below). This is really interesting, in my opinion. Same with Delilah.
