Strong’s Definitions

בַּת־שֶׁבַע Bath-Shebaʻ, bath-sheh'-bah; from H1323 and H7651 (in the sense of H7650); daughter of an oath; Bath-Sheba, the mother of Solomon:—Bath-sheba.

Note by BLB: Strong's entry lists the pronunciation of this word with the "b" sound. This is incorrect. The ב (bet) does not have a daghesh lene so it is pronounced with a "v" sound. This is why the transliteration has a bar under the "b" (ḇ).
