Full Meaning of Mayna

Mayna is an indirect Quranic name for girls that means helper, one who takes care of others. It is an alternative pronunciation of the name Mueena. It is not directly mentioned in the Quran, but its root A-W-N is used in many places in the Quran, which makes it an indirect Quranic name. An example is Quran 1:5 – Surat al-Fatihah:

It is You we worship and You we ask for help.
