Meaning and history

Suha has distinct Arabic and Turkish uses. In Arabic, Suhā is the traditional name of the faint star Alcor in Ursa Major and is associated with subtlety or something easily overlooked. In Turkish, Suha is used as a masculine name borrowed from Arabic. The spelling may also represent other transliterations, so one broad translation is inappropriate. Notable bearers include Palestinian public figure Suha Arafat and Turkish documentary filmmaker Suha Arın.
