It's widely used in Muslim families - as far as I recall, it's the name of the Prophet's wife; so whatever the word may originally have meant, it now has the meaning of the beloved partner of a great man.

I think that Khadija was the Prophet's wet-nurse or something like that

Nope - she was his (20 years older, rich and previously widowed) wife
