Fatimah

Fatimah is a Hausa girl name that means “One who abstains; daughter of the Prophet”. This name is part of the rich naming tradition of the Hausa people of Nigeria, where names carry deep significance and often reflect the circumstances of a child's birth, family values, or spiritual beliefs.

Pronounced FAH-tee-mah, this name is commonly given to girls in Hausa-speaking communities across Nigeria.
