Question

What is the meaning of the name “Nurainah”? Parents want to keep their daughter’s name Nurainah but have only come across one Muslim person who has this name and cannot find many meanings. What is the meaning and is this a good name?

Answer

We have not come across this name.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
