Asking on behalf of a friend who doesn’t have a log in. She has a step daughter called Laila and a son named Rafi and she’s expecting a little girl.

Thank you
The name needs to be Arabic.

I like classical names and I think there are Arabic equivalents for Sophia and Roxana, though I'm not sure of the spelling.

I think Arabic names are pretty but I don't know much about them unfortunately.

I’m glad two of you like nimah. I absolutely adore it and have yet to meet another.

Malala isn’t an Arabic name. It’s Pashtun and it’s meaning is “grief stricken” which IMO isn’t a very nice!

celticmissey · 03/12/2017 10:40

Zariah ...I've been told it means princess (pronounced zaaaaareeeeahh)

kaytee87 · 03/12/2017 17:17

Nadi or Nadia

Mrsknackered · 03/12/2017 18:07
