Arabic girl names

I’m looking for Arabic girls names that aren’t so common. I’m tired of all the Ayeshas, Mariams, Alinas etc.
Help please!

And I'm just going to go way out there with the name I always wanted to call a daughter (but didn't), Scheherazade. I love that name!

How about Sarah? In Arabic it means 'Joy or Delight' in Hebrew it means 'Woman of high rank, or Princess'
