Meaning, origin, history
Ninah is a unique and beautiful name of Hebrew origin. It means "lady" or "woman of noble birth." This name has a rich history, dating back to the Old Testament in the Bible. In the Book of Genesis, Ninah was the wife of Noah's son Japheth and the mother of Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. Despite its biblical roots, Ninah is not a very common name today, making it an excellent choice for parents looking for something distinctive yet meaningful for their daughter.
