This name represents a powerful goddess, a motherly figure embodying the Divine Feminine. Her most famous form is compassionate and caring. A close relative, sometimes a sibling, sometimes a partner, is also important in stories about this name. Celebrations for this name are bright and lively, with parades, music, and gifts. Big festivals happen in spring (celebrating new beginnings) and autumn (giving thanks for the harvest). Smaller, local festivals also exist, each with its own unique style.

AAMINA, Aminah, Ameena, and Amina are all basically the same name, just spelled slightly differently. These variations come from how the name is written in Arabic and how its pronounced in different places. Its like saying "color" versus "colour"—same meaning, different spelling.
