ArchivesRe: SINA(H) as a Gaelic / Hebrew name
in reply to a message by Andy ;—)
Some of my German name books say that the spelling Sinah does originate in USAmerica.
It looks Hebrew with the "h" but I do not think that it is.
I did a google search for Zinah and found some pages that look Arabic to me.

Sinah/Zinah
I should have explained that I did search Zinah because the German "s" does sound more like "z".
The German "z" does not seem exist in English but it is more "harsh".
So Zinah and Sinah might have been melted into one name. Arabic and Hebrew names (and words) can be very close to each other.
