What is the meaning of the name Nisaa ?

The baby name Nisaa is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /niːˈsɑː/ (nee-SAH); Arabic: nisāʾ /niːˈsɑːʔ/.

Nisaa is Arabic in Origin.

Nisaa is an Arabic feminine given name derived from Nisā’ (نساء), the Qur’anic and classical Arabic word for “women,” carrying connotations of womanhood and collective femininity. The name’s prominence is reinforced by the fourth chapter of the Qur’an, Sūrat al-Nisā’, and it has been adopted across Muslim cultures as a dignified, faith-inflected choice. Usage is attested from the medieval Islamic world to the present, with steady popularity in contemporary Turkey, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.

Spelling reflects transliteration: Nisaa marks the long final vowel; alternatives include Nisa, Nisah, Nisā’, and the Ottoman-style Nisâ. While not strictly the same name, it sometimes appears in compound forms (e.g., Nisa Nur) in Turkish and Malay contexts. The meaning remains consistent - “women,” “the women,” or “womanhood” - and the pronunciation typically approximates nee-SAA, with stress on the second syllable.
