Noor or Noora
Zehra / Zohra / Zara / Zora
Mariam or Maryam
Hiba / Heba
Faiza
Eman or Eyman
Oddly there are no Layla or Aya's at the school.
Other Arab names that are easy to westernize are variations of Aisha, Alia, Sara, Nora, Farah, Dania, Zara, Nadia, Hanna, Yasmine
OP here. These names scream “Arab” to me and these are the exact types of names I’m hoping to avoid.

Lots of great Arabic names for girls though! I like Zahra, Leila, Noura, Farah - many others too.
it means governess in Urdu.. well really.. nursemaid.. as well so im thinking it means something similar in arabic. its important that the name have a lovely meaning as well as sound. Nora is a good suggestion.
