The German Gothic Metal band Xandria has an album called "Salome-The Seventh Veil," which includes the title track "Salome." It's a beautiful album and a beautiful song! I don't really have an opinion on the name itself either way, though.
Salome is also the name of the monarch of Judea, Salome Alexandra, who was their last - and some say greatest of her family - to die in power before Rome took control of the area.
Alex Kingston's daughter's name is Salome Violetta.

'Salome' is the name of a play written in French by Oscar Wilde during the mid-to-late nineteenth century. It was prohibited from being performed on the English stage because of its depiction of Biblical characters. 'Salome' has been declared by many critics to be 'unactable', but is a triumph in dialogue and provocative imagery.
There is an opera called Salome by Richard Strauss which tells the story of the tragic biblical character who demands the head of John the Baptist, her unrequited love, as a reward for her dance.
