Nebuchadnezzar is said to have conferred this name on the youthful Daniel (Da 1:7). The Babylonian form would be Balatsu-usur ("protect his life!") or, according to Da 4:8, Bel balatsu-usur. The Septuagint and Theodotion employ Baltasar both for it and for Belshazzar (ch. 5); and pseudo-Epiphanius repeats a legend that Nebuchadnezzar wished to make the two men co-heirs.
