means Mercy… Gift from Allah.
Though she understands that it isn’t a common name, the meaning behind the name is powerful, sweet, and unique hence why her husband suggested it to her.
“So I saw a lot of comments regarding my name Minnah that cracked me up so bad. Some comments are so hilarious. Yes! Minnah is a beautiful, Islamic name and it means Mercy… Gift from Allah (google to confirm) Ramadan Kareem”.
She added,
“I saw a lot of comments from some Muslims saying it’s Aminat, some said it’s ‘Meenah’ and Menna is not a Muslim name, etc. So it is not Aminat, neither is it Meenah… The correct name is Minnah.
I understand it’s not a common name so a lot of people aren’t used to it, it’s a powerful, sweet, unique name that’s why when hubby suggested it. I loved it.
If you are a Muslim and searching for unique baby girl names for your princess. I’ll recommend Minnah and make sure you invite me to the naming”.
