Maryam

مريم

Female · Arabic, from Hebrew/Aramaic

The Arabic/Quranic form of Mary (Hebrew Miryam). The ancient etymology is genuinely debated among scholars, with proposed meanings including "beloved" and "wished-for child" — there is no single settled answer. Maryam (Mary, mother of Jesus) is named in the Quran, whose 19th surah bears her name.
