Hi !!!

WDYTO this Arabic name?
It means 'decoration, ornament'.

I like it because it is simple but shining imo.

I prefer Zeinab, mostly because it looks more authentically Asian than Zeina or Zayna, either of which could easily be just casual inventions.

I'm not keen on either but I do love Zainab which must come from the same root?

Hi !!!

Yes it has the same root 'Z-Y-N which means 'beautify'.

Despite its floreal meaning I can say that Zaynab is a very religious name while Zeina isn't.

I like it, both spellings. I like it a lot more than Zane.
