[Facts] YARIMA
When I was growing up in Spain I had a friend called Yarima (pronounced Jarima), does anyone know what it means? I've wondered about it....

Did you grow up in Ajalvir, Madrid, Spain? I had a polish friend when I was I child named Ágata. She went to Toronto I think. I think about her a lot... is possible that person is you?
The name Yarima is actually a word in the language Hausa it means Princess.
The Hausa-English dictionary on the web (by Bargery) says
yarima
[ya"ri/+ma"] {n.m.}. An official position and little, held by a son or younger brother of the ruling chief.
(with the a" representing low tone, and i/+ indicating a long vowel with mid tone)
This says it is a masculine noun, so i am a bit confused.

Yarima in the Northern part of Nigeria is a title. When a person is called Yarima, that person is heir to the throne.
Yarima is also a female name from de indians of brasilian trible;Yanomami, in Amazonia. That's my name! In the Yanomami language means: "Rising Sun"
