Meaning and origin of Ameena
Ameena spells Amīna, the feminine of Amīn, and it means 'trustworthy', from a root about safety and trust. It is easily confused with Āmina, or Aamina, the name of the Prophet's ﷺ mother, which is said with a shorter middle vowel and carries the sense of being safe. Both names are much loved. What sets Ameena apart is its long 'ee' sound, which marks it as the word for a woman who is trustworthy.
