Meaning of the name Lujain
Lujayn is an old, poetic word for silver, the precious metal. It has the form of a diminutive, like thurayya (the Pleiades), but lexicographers note that it has no simple form. The name evokes the purity and soft gleam of silver; it is very popular in Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt. The word is not in the Quran, which calls silver fidda.
