I know lots of Muslims with the name Maya but when I look up the meaning, most books and websites say it's Hindu or European. I really like it but am a bit concerned as I'd like an Islamically acceptable name.
I think Maya can mean water in Arabic, and maybe something to do with faith or belief in God in Urdu??
Does anyone know if these are true or of any other meanings?
Thanks
