Hind
“An ancient Arabic feminine name, possibly derived from the name for a female deer (hind in English as well), though in Arabic the connection is to a class of beautiful, graceful animals. Hind is one of the oldest feminine names in the Arabic tradition, borne by numerous notable women in early Islamic and pre-Islamic history, including Hind bint Utbah, the formidable wife of Abu Sufyan.”
Sinbad
“The name Sinbad (Arabic: Sindbad) may derive from Persian "Sindbad" or Sanskrit "Siddha-pati" (lord of the accomplished), though the true etymology remains uncertain. Sinbad the Sailor is one of the most famous characters from One Thousand and One Nights, a merchant adventurer from Basra whose seven extraordinary voyages became the Arabian world's defining tales of adventure and wonder.”
Reem
“From the Arabic "rīm" (also written "raim") meaning a white gazelle or oryx — the most graceful of desert animals and a classic symbol of feminine beauty in Arabic poetry. The gazelle's eyes (عيون الغزال, uyun al-ghazal) are the supreme poetic compliment for a woman's beauty in the Arabic lyric tradition.”
Hamza
“From the Arabic root "ḥ-m-z" meaning to be strong, lion-hearted, or sharp, Hamza conveys fierce strength and bravery. It is borne by Hamza ibn Abd al-Muttalib, the Prophet Muhammad's uncle and one of the greatest warriors of early Islam, who earned the title "Lion of God" (Asad Allah) and "Master of Martyrs" (Sayyid al-Shuhada).”
Lelah
“Lelah is a feminine name, likely a variant of Leila, an Arabic and Persian feminine name from the word layl meaning "night." The name is evocative of dark, mysterious beauty in Arabic and Persian poetic tradition — Leila and Majnun is the great Arab and Persian love story, the Eastern equivalent of Romeo and Juliet.”
Layla
“From the Arabic root "l-y-l" meaning night, Layla conveys the mystery, beauty, and intoxication of darkness. It is immortalized in the ancient Arabic tale of Qays and Layla, one of the most celebrated love stories in Arabic and Persian literary tradition, in which Layla represents an unattainable ideal of beauty and longing.”
