Siti is an Arabic-derived name meaning "lady" or "mistress," rooted in the word *sayyidah*—a title of respect widely used across Muslim cultures. In Indonesia and Malaysia it often appears as part of compound names like Siti Nurhaliza, honouring the beloved Malaysian singer whose career spans decades, or Siti Aisyah, a notable Indonesian politician. The name is also a common abbreviation for Fatimah, the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. In Scotland, Siti has been given to baby girls since the early 2000s, reflecting the country's growing diversity. A gentle variant is "Sitty," occasionally seen in older records, but the form Siti remains the most familiar, carrying associations of grace and dignity.
