Sidrah

Girl name · 10 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Sidrah: 10 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2019.

Sidrah is a name of Arabic origin, drawn from the Qur’anic term *Sidrat al‑Muntaha*, the sacred Lote Tree that marks the boundary of the seventh heaven in Islamic tradition – a symbol of divine knowledge and spiritual journey. While no widely known historical figures bear this name, its variant Sidra has gained modest modern popularity, and the name itself is occasionally found among Scottish‑Muslim families. There are no direct place connections, but the root word sidr refers to the lote tree itself, a motif that appears in Middle Eastern poetry and garden design. The name’s soft, flowing sound and deep religious resonance make it a meaningful choice for parents seeking a name that blends beauty with spiritual significance.
