Heart, soul, or beloved
Derived from the Arabic word for heart or soul, Janan is a poetic name often used to signify a deeply loved person. It carries a spiritual and emotional weight, suggesting an inner life or essence. In some contexts, it can also refer to a garden or paradise, though the 'heart' etymology is most prominent.
