Origin: Arabic

Meaning: Safe

From the moment baby is born, nothing will matter more than their safety and well-being. Salimah is more than a feminine Arabic name; with its meaning of “safe,” it is your little one's lifelong safety blanket. The name was brought to worldwide attention after the former fashion model Salimah Aga Khan married Prince Karim Aga Khan IV in 1969. Informally known as Sally, the princess sold her personal jewel collection for over $27 million upon her 1995 divorce. Although an eye-watering sum of money, knowing baby Salimah is safe and secure is priceless.
