Amina (or Aminah) is the loose transcription of two different Arabic female given names: ʾĀmina (Arabic: آمنة, also anglicized as Aaminah or Amna) meaning "safe one, protected" ʾAmīna (Arabic: أمينة, also anglicized as Ameena), the feminine form of Amin, meaning "devoted, honest, straightforward, trusty, worth of belief (believable), loyal, faithful, obedient of Iman". The name is highly popular in Nigeria owing to Amina of Zazzau, a legendary Hausa warrior queen.
