... are absolutely fabulous! I adore them. Seeing Herbert in particular makes me so happy.
Islamiya is really something, too! I'd love to know more about the name and the bearer's background.

I assume Islamiya is derived from Islam (see Islambek), but her maiden name is totally English. From what I can find it's used in Russia, but also Arabic countries. Islamia is also used.
