The name of the Queen of Sheba, Bilqis, was mentioned in a marfu' report which does not constitute proof. However, it was mentioned in some mawquf and maqtu' narrations, transmitted in authentic books, that her name was Bilqis bint Dhi Sharah or Bilqis bint Sharahil. These narrations are sufficient to refer to her by the name Bilqis.
