Rashid
Arabic · “From the Arabic root "r-sh-d" meaning to follow the right path, to be rightly guided, to be mature in judgment, Rashid means "rightly guided", "wise", or "one of sound judgment". It is one of the 99 names of God in Islam (Al-Rashid, meaning the Guide to the Right Path) and was famously borne by the caliph Harun al-Rashid.”

Khadijah
“A variant spelling of Khadija, from an Arabic root meaning "premature child" or "born early", though the name is associated entirely with honor and strength. The variant spelling Khadijah reflects the Arabic definite article voweling and is used interchangeably with Khadija — both refer to the first wife of the Prophet Muhammad and one of the most important women in Islamic history.”
Harun
“The Arabic form of Aaron, from the Hebrew "Aharon" meaning "high mountain" or "exalted". Harun al-Rashid was the fifth Abbasid caliph, who presided over the "Golden Age" of Islam in Baghdad around 800 CE and appears as a character in several tales of One Thousand and One Nights, wandering his city in disguise to learn the truth of his subjects' lives.”
Zeynep

“The Arabic form of Ishmael, from the Hebrew "Yishmael" meaning "God will hear" or "God has heard", compounded from "shama" (to hear) and "El" (God). In Islamic tradition, Ismail is the son of Ibrahim (Abraham) and Hagar, considered the ancestor of the Arab peoples and, with his father, the builder of the Kaaba in Mecca.”
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.”
