Meaning of Zaynah

Zaynah is an Arabic name born from the word zayn, meaning “beauty” or “grace,” and it has a way of weaving itself into hearts on both sides of the world.

Picture a tiny Zaynah toddling through a sunlit garden, her laughter as light as petals on the breeze—that’s the effortless charm this name carries. It feels at once exotic and wonderfully approachable, a nod to rich cultural roots with a warmth that fits right into an afternoon playdate or a family gathering around the dinner table.
