zullema is Arabic in Origin.
Zullema is a modern variant of the Spanish name Zulema, ultimately from Arabic Sulayma/Sulaymah or Salima/Salma, all tied to the triliteral root S‑L‑M meaning peace, safety, and wholeness. The name is commonly interpreted as peaceful, safe, or sound, with nuances of being unharmed.
Carried into Iberia via Andalusi Arabic, it appears in medieval records and later spread through Spain, North Africa, and Latin America. Standard Spanish form is Zulema; close variants include Sulema, Zuleima, Zulima, Zulayma, and the clipped Zulma. Related but distinct is Zuleika/Zulaikha. The double‑l Zullema reflects contemporary creative orthography rather than a separate origin, aligning visually with Spanish ll yet keeping the same pronunciation, with initial z realized as z/θ in Spain and s in most of Latin America.
