Meaning
Ume-Hani is a South Asian Roman spelling commonly associated with Umm Hani, a traditional Arabic kunya, or honorific form of naming. Literally, umm means “mother,” so Umm Hani means “mother of Hani”; it is not originally a straightforward personal-name meaning such as “happiness” or “beautiful.” The name has historical significance through Umm Hani bint Abi Talib, a relative of the Prophet Muhammad. In Pakistan, spellings such as Umme Hani, Umm Hani, and Ume Hani are encountered.
