Gottlieb (German for 'beloved by God') is a theophoric name that is used as a surname or as a male given name. Gottlieb appeared in High German in the 17th century, in German speaking parts of Europe. It was a product of the age of pietism, giving young men a religiously charged name. Earlier forms of the name are attested from the 6th century in the Gothic language as Gudilub, normalized as 'Gudaliufs'. Equivalent names in other languages include Latin Amadeus, Greek Theophil, and Bulgarian Bogomil.
