I know a little girl called Ameera, I think that's how you spell it, which I believe means princess. It's a lovely name.

Some lovely names on here :)

KnockedUpMell · 17/08/2012 14:33

I liked safiyah, Saira, sahra and sabeena for our girl... My DH wouldn't consider them as we aren't Muslim! Not sure sabeena is Arabic in origin though, but the others are.
