Meaning and history

Jumana is an Arabic feminine name derived from jumāna, traditionally meaning a pearl or a bead resembling a pearl, sometimes specifically one made of silver. The name consequently carries associations with beauty and precious ornament but should not be expanded into unrelated gemstone meanings. It is used across the Arab world and in Muslim communities elsewhere. Notable bearers include Palestinian artist Jumana El Husseini and Jordanian journalist and television presenter Jumana Ghunaimat.
