Question

Baby girl name confusion....

Tahura fathimah ?

Tahoora fathimah ?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Tahura and Tahoora are both the same name. It means “to be pure”. You may choose to spell it in any of the two ways.

We advise you spell it as “Tahoora” to avoid confusion in pronunciation.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
