Maiaa

A Non-Quranic Name for Girls

Maiaa is variant of Maya and has the exact same meaning and pronunciation (see below for full meaning). You can use either Maiaa or Maya, both are correct and acceptable. If you like this variant more and you'd like to pronounce it the way it is spelled (different than the original name), this is perfectly acceptable. For more details please see the main entry at: Maya.

Full Meaning of Maiaa

Maiaa (مايا) is an Avestan (an ancient Persian language) name that means “graciousness”, “gracious nature”. Since this is a good meaning, Muslims can use it.

Maiaa can also be the name of a Roman goddess. This meaning is unacceptable in Islam because it is a pagan name. For this reason if you use the name Maiaa, you should use it for the Avestan meaning, not the Roman meaning.
