Heard by God; listener
Samoni is a rare feminine variant likely derived from the Hebrew name Shimon or the French Simone. It carries the traditional meaning of being heard or listening, often interpreted in a spiritual context as being heard by the divine. Its rarity in the United States makes it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a familiar sound with a unique spelling.
