See Kug-Baba for the sumerian queen.

Kubaba goddess of the ancient Syrian city of Carchemish. She plays a minor role in Hittite texts, mainly in Hurrian religious rituals. Later, her cult spread, and she became the main goddess of the Hittite successor-kingdoms in Anatolia.

Kug-baba or Kubaba is also the name of the only queen in the Sumerian king list.
