Azmina (pronounced az-MEE-nuh, /æzˈmiːnə/) is a feminine given name of Arabic origin, deriving from the root ʾ-m-n which denotes notions of trustworthiness and fidelity; as a variant of Amina, it conveys an implicit emphasis on reliability and moral integrity. Historically prevalent in Arabic-speaking regions and South Asia, the name has in recent decades been assimilated into Anglo-American naming conventions, where its measured phonetic structure and distinctive cultural provenance appeal to parents seeking both uniqueness and semantic depth. According to United States Social Security Administration data, Azmina has appeared sporadically in the national registry of newborn names since 1989, registering between five and eleven annual occurrences and corresponding ranks from 824 to 960; its peak incidence—eleven births—was recorded in 2017 (rank 948), while in 2019 through 2023 the name stabilized at five to seven annual assignments (ranks 937–953). The name’s phonetic profile adheres to standard American English stress and vowel patterns, ensuring consistent pronunciation, and its enduring associations of fidelity and steadfastness underscore its suitability for parents who prioritize both cultural resonance and technical clarity in name selection.
