“From the Arabic yasamin, derived from the Persian yasaman, referring to the jasmine flower. The word entered Arabic and subsequently spread throughout the Islamic world, carrying associations of beauty, delicacy, and intoxicating fragrance. Jasmine has deep symbolic resonance in Persian and Arabic poetry as an emblem of beloved feminine grace.”
Maryam
“The Arabic form of Mary/Miriam, derived from the Hebrew "Miryam" whose precise etymology is debated — suggested meanings include "beloved", "bitter sea", or "wished-for child". In the Quran, Maryam (Mary) is the only woman referred to by name, and she has an entire chapter (Surah 19) dedicated to her, venerated as a model of purity and devotion.”
Azra
“From Arabic "Azrā" meaning virgin, pure, or maiden — conveying unspoiled purity and youth.

Jazz musician John Coltrane named a celebrated composition "Naima" after his wife.”
