Hester is an English and Biblical Latin forename and surname, and comes from Esther (which likely means "Star" in Persian.)

Having said that-- there is also a possibility that it was derived from the Near Eastern goddess Ishtar (of an unknown meaning... though, she evidently presided over love, war and fertility.)
