Zaida meaning

My 3 year old is named Zaida. I love the name we say it Zay-duh> now im having another baby and cant think of a name that compares.

My name is Izaida and I have a Mexican background. My mom named me after reading a newspaper. There was a picture of a bride and she loved her name'so decided to name me Izaida. My boyfriend is Moroccan and Zaida is a city of central Morroco.

My name is Zaida my mom put Z in front of her name Aida . I'm Puerto Rican and yes people here in Ga mispronounce my name all the time . I learn to correct them if they can't I kindly say just call me "Z" thank you... they usually say thank you to me cuz they see my reaction when'they mispronounce it..lol..

Hi, my name is ZAIDA, I am a Filipina and I'm proud of my name... Zaida means, Prosperous...

The media hates "Walter." 99% of the time "Walter" is a whiney, stinky old man. An exception is the fI'm His Girl Friday wherein "Walter" is a roguish, rapscallion newspaper editor played by Cary Grant. But that fI'm is about 60 years old. These days if you meet a "Walter" he invariably is named after his father or uncle. Nobody looks at baby and thinks, "Walter." I had to name my kid Walter, to keep the'streak alive. he's number'six in a row. But we gave him an out. His middle name. If he doesn't fancy "Walter," if he thinks It's not cool, we told him he could go by his middle name, and we'd all be fine with it and address him by his middle name, "Percy."

I am not Arabic. I live in the USA & have always seen my name as unique though some names come close to it like Syeda, Saida, or Zaira. I have not really met a Zaida though I know there was another when I was in High School for I saw her name up on the board. It is often misspronounced as many have already said, and I go by how I want my name to be pronounced which is with an S though it has a Z at the'starting. I tell people that my name is Sye-da and then'they ask me how to spell it & say it way off from how I told them to pronounce it. About 4 people have told me that they know someone else with that name & I'm glad I did not meet that person. It's unique to find someone else with that'same name, but I also like that I haven't met them. There are a lot of unique names in my family. Half of my family have Hebrew first or middle names. My middle name comes from the Bible. I love all sets of my names. I am a shinning bright star and fortunate to have God in my life. He is amazing. I'm grateful for making me wonderfully made. I'm hispanic & very different than anyone my race or other races. I know that our names mean fortunate, but I think everyone is to be alive. I love the'spelling, especially the Z. Z is just so beautiful! I'm often surrounded by caucasians, and realize they have a tough time than other people i've met to prounouce this name. When I have a letter written'to me, often people spell it, "Ziada". Obviously,... It's not. Our names rock! God bless us all! :)

My six year old daughter is named Zaida Rose. We love the name. She is unique, strong and beautiful as is her name.

It's a very common name from where I am.My Daughter also carries it.My mother named me after a spanish soap opera here in Puertorico.

Very strong and unigue with positive meanings behind the name. Not one to be chosen by those only comfortable with customary names such as Steve, John, Lisa.....

My name is Zaida and I was named after my great grandmother whose name was Canzaida. It is pronounced with a long a vowel sound. I have only met one person named the'same as me and I am now seventy years old. People are always pronouncing my name wrong.

My name Zaida is pronounced Zy-da. I am told it is originally an old Persian name adopted by the'spanish in Spain during the 800 year Moorish domination. Allegedly a Kalif had three daughter princesses and one, who is infamous, was called Zaida. There is poetry in the archives of the university of madrid about the infamous Zaida. Depending on how it is pronounced, the old Persian/FarsI'meanings are either "Oh, holy one" or "one who is not necessary" .. It may also be a name in the book Tales of the Alhambra by Washington Irving.

This name is somehow classic and hip at the'same time. Always cute!!!

My name is Zaida I'm 62 and love my name my granddaughters middle name is zaida to

Zaire can be a girl's name too. I am female and my name is Zaire.

My God, Thank you, Gracias, Shukriya, Shukran, Dhannvaad, for this delighful and gorgeous name you've gifted upon us! I am from Mexico, 18 yrs of age. My grandmother's name being Aida, my mom that follows with Saida, and me, Zaida... Born in Mexico but from Spanish, Cuban, & middle eastern background. i've always thought of my name as blessing. I LOVE IT JUST LIKE ALL OF YOU! From sometime around, Middle eastern culture has really made a little special place in my heart, and when i go to their malls, wow! i love to introduce myself with such rich name!(i love to hear when'they say:OH!that is INDIAN NAME! or ARABIC NAME!) fills me up with joy because i feel closer to them that way! by the way: i love dancing, i dance classical indian dance, and modern bollywood :D i love their food, their sarees! EVERYTHNIG! To all of you Zaida's, keep enjoying your beautiful name :) We are Unique and special, we are fortunate, we are Prosperous! God bless all of you Zaida's!

My name is Zaidra. I think Zaida and Zaidra are beautiful names. I even named my daughter Zavian

My wife is a Puerto Rican Zaida, pronounced "SIGH-da" I initially thought it was "sa-EE-da", like Aida, but was quickly set straight. Zaida is not uncommon in the'spanish Caribbean and places like Florida and New York where people from there have settled. One thing i've noticed is that It's pretty much unknown along the MX-US border, which makes me suspect the'spanish settlers in the Caribbean and Mexico came from different parts of Spain. As I understand it, Zaida came into Spanish from Arabic through Moorish, maybe amplified by the famous Alfonso VI story.

My name Zaida, i am puerto rican. this name is arabic and the meaning is " prosperous and increasing". everyone always comment on my name and asks me what it means or if i am arabic. I just enjoy every moment and day that i will spend being me. Most people pronounce it Zayra, or Zeta..

Growing up In the 60's in the US my name did get miss pronounced a lot, yet I did feel very unique no one else I new had my name. But I'must say I would never change it.

this is my daughters name. I haven't meet anyone with this for a name yet

I just found my 3rd Grand Aunt (my Third Great Grandfathe's sister) was named that in 1819. It was the first time I saw the name and always look up new names of relatives I find. (or I knew my grandmothe's middle name was Zella :) )

My daughter's name is Zaida, and we chose it for It's musicality and stren'th. Some people do have difficulty pronucing/spelling it, but people either generally love it, or if they are jewish, they tell me that it means 'grandfather'. I usuallt respond be saying, yes, I know, and it also means fortunate one in Arabic.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO VAt is up in you Country Zaida from India WOOP WOOP

HI'my name is Zaida, and I was born on the Caribbean island Curacao (Dutch West Indies). I love my name, I think It's very feminine and sexy. From Arabic origin and meaning "prosperous" and "fortunate", my mom could not have given me a better name. I have a strong character, definitely not a follower, Ik ben echt apart (Dutch) I am apart/ different (English)

My mother got the name from a novella which is a radio soap opera in Puerto Rico in 1961. The'story must have been good enough for her to give me this Mid Eastern name. I do have the look and people ask me if I'm Syrian since I was school age. I wished my mother had pick her name which is Carmen. I always have to correct people that call me Zelda,Ziva,Zeta, and It's crazy even in the Army the officer I worked for couldn't pronounce it and I told him to just call me "Z" and he thank me for making It'simple. The Moors did live in P.R.

Try to keep this short. We struggled with infertility for years and I decided to put HAVFATH on my tags, just a daily reminder to myself to have faith, knowing that God would let me have a baby, one day. Anyways, we received a chance to adopt a new baby girl and had less than 2 months to prepare and I could NOT find a name that I loved, wanted it to be unique but not crazy either. Saw Hadley and FELL IN LOVE, knew that it was to be my baby's name. She was born and since we thought she was a boy... I was ecstatic to find out she was a girl! Nurse asked if we had a name picked out and I blurted out "Hadley Faith" without even asking my husband!! Neat thing is, for years I looked at "have faith" on my tags, and now I have my Hadley Faith forever! LOVE the name. We do find that people tend to want to call her Hailey which is okay, if there strangers I don't bother correcting them. Everyone has seemed to be very fond of the name and often ask if It's a family name.

Hi, well my name is Zaida also! I am 28 years old, I live in New Zealand and apart from my Great Grandmother's name being Zaida this is the first time I have heard of othe's!! I haven't always liked having to spell andv pronounce my name but the older I get the more I love being somewhat unique and different. Hello all Zaida's out there its lovely to meet you =)

My daughter's name is Zaida. She is 8. We gave her this name because of its uniqueness. She loves it.

My four year old is named Zaida. The first time I heard the name I knew that is what I would name her. I had soooo many thoughts for names, but when I heard this one it just clicked. She loves her name too :) Hope she always does. It is unique & beautiful.

My name is "Zaidra". I don't know where I got this name from, what the origin of it is and anything. If there are othe's with the'same name, I would LOVE to hear about you.

My name is Zaida (sigh-da) love my name. I am Colombian and was adopted when I was 6, now living in the US.

this is my daughters name and i wanted to spell it differently but i went ahead with her fathe's idea and spelled it K-A-Y-L-I-N and no one yet has to mispronounced it. I havent met another Kaylin yet, i got the name from Americas next top model.but that girl spelled it Kahlen.

I'm gunna give my unborn child this name but not as a first as a middle name i wished for a baby on a shooting star then a few days later i fell pregnant so to me my baby is lucky im lucky an zaida means lucky lol i love it.

My name is Zaida. Inter'stingly, for the past 22 years i've introduced myself as "Zay-dah" because classmates and teache's could never'say it properly, "Zah-ee-dah." But i've always wanted to be called "Zah-ee-dah" the way I liked it, and the way my parents had intended it to be. So now I'm at college in Hollywood, and i've introduced myself as "Zah-ee-dah." It's a bit weird to have old friends back home in Hawai`i still call me "Zay-dah" but I have to say It's awesome hearing my name'said the way i've always wanted it to be! :)

My name is Zaida and I am Guatemalan. For the longest time I felt so unique until I looked online and saw that othe's have the'same name. Still, very happy to share this speacial name it is very strong and unique and has come to embody my character.

I named my daughter Zaida. Her Dad's name is Zawdie. I love it because It's unique & strong yet feminine!

My daughter's name is Zaida (pronounced Zay-dah) Nicole. We love it. Ironically there is another girl in our town (a year younger than our Zaida) name Zayda, pronounced the'same way! Our town is very small (about 30,000 people) so it caught me off-guard! I thought our Zaida would always be the only one! :) Funny enough, we have four children (and pregnant with number five) and she's the only one with a very unique name! :)
