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

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

Isma comes from the Arabic root '-s-m, the same root behind Asim. “'Ismah” means “safeguarding” or protection, used theologically to describe the protection granted to prophets from grave error.
