Sahlma Origin and Meaning

The name Sahlma is a girl's name.

Sahlma is an uncommon feminine name with possible Arabic or Scandinavian origins. If derived from Arabic roots, it may be related to 'salima' meaning 'safe' or 'peaceful.' In Scandinavian contexts, it could be a variant of 'Salma' with the added 'h' giving it a distinctive pronunciation. The name remains quite rare in most Western countries, maintaining an air of uniqueness and exoticism. Sahlma might appeal to parents seeking a name with cross-cultural resonance that balances unfamiliarity with relatively straightforward pronunciation. The name's rarity means it lacks strong cultural associations, allowing the bearer to define its meaning through their own identity.
