This was 100 years before the Shiphrah in Exodus 1 though. Walter Kaiser in A History of Israel p.84 and The Expositor’s Bible Commentary volume 2 p.307 mentions that for two Semitic names, Shiphrah probably comes from Sp-ra (fair one), and the name Puah is probably is derived from the Ugaritic word "Pgt" meaning "girl" or "splendid one".
Walt Kaiser kwenye A History of Israel, uk.84 na The Expositor’s Bible Commentary juzuu ya 2, uk.307 anasema kuwa majina mawili ya Kisemitiki, Shifra linaweza kuwa linatokana na jina "Sp-ra" (mwenye haki), na jina "Puah" huenda lilitokana na neno la Kigariti (lugha iliyoumika maeneo ya Syria ya kale kwenye karne za 14 hadi 12 KK) "Pgt" lenye kumaanisha "msichana" au "mwenye kutukuka."
