I've always thought the name Fatima was genuinely beautiful, and I prefer the transcription Fatima to Fatimah. The meaning makes me a bit uncomfortable - what are we abstaining from? Is this just a prettier way of saying "Chastity" - yet in the right cultural context, I think it's lovely. I am not in a position where I think it would be culturally appropriate to use it, however.
