What Does the Name Siham Mean?
Siham is an Arabic feminine name meaning "arrows." It comes from the Arabic word sihām (سهام), the plural of sahm (سهم), "arrow." The name uses the ordinary noun directly, so its meaning is literal rather than symbolic. In Arabic, sahm also has the separate sense of a "share" or "portion," but the personal name is conventionally understood in its arrow sense.
Siham Name History & Origins
Siham is a traditional Arabic given name, formed from a common noun rather than from a religious figure or a dynastic name. Its form is the plural sihām, so the name is grammatically a plural noun used as a singular personal name. The word sahm is old in Arabic and appears in classical usage with the sense "arrow"; related forms of the root can also refer to casting lots or assigning shares. Siham is used in Arabic-speaking societies, and its history is chiefly lexical: it carries the established noun meaning rather than a narrative attached to a particular person or event.
