In the Ugaritic texts (before 1200 BCE) Athirat is almost always given her full title rabat ʾAṯirat yammi, "Lady Athirat of the Sea" or as more fully translated "she who treads on the sea" (Ugaritic 𐎗𐎁𐎚 𐎀𐎘𐎗𐎚 𐎊𐎎, rbt ʾaṯrt ym).
She is also called Elat (Ugaritic 𐎛𐎍𐎚, ilt), "Goddess", the feminine form of El (compare Allat) and Qodesh, "holiness" (Ugaritic 𐎖𐎄𐎌, qdš).
