Alternate Spellings

Aasma is a feminine title rich in history, originating from Arabic roots. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Excellent, precious', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

Pronounced as Aasma, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Aasma, like the more common spelling Asma, comes from the Arabic root s-m-w, meaning "elevated" or lofty, shared with Asma bint Abi Bakr, a companion celebrated for her courage.
