Tiltan

תִּלְתָּן

• Gender: Female
• Origin: Modern Hebrew
• Meaning: clover

• Tiltan is the Hebrew word for clover, a cheerful little plant that dots the Israeli countryside in spring. It belongs to the wonderful tradition of modern Hebrew nature names that draw directly from the land of Israel rather than from ancient texts. For parents who love the idea of a botanical name but want to go beyond the English-language standbys, Tiltan offers something genuinely unexpected.

  Looking for a botanical name with real bite? This one has a crisp, modern edge that sets it apart from softer picks like Lily or Violet. It feels adventurous and unexpected, perfect for parents who want their daughter's name to spark curiosity — and who does not love a name that carries a little piece of the Israeli hillside in spring?
