Choosing an Islamic Name for My Daughter: Aiza, Ansharah, or Adeena?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Allah Ta’ala blessed me with a daughter. I want to keep her name Aiza, Ansharah or Adeena. Can I keep these names? Are they Islamic names? What do they mean?

Bismillaah

A: We have not come across these names. It is best that you keep the names of the Sahaaba and the pious of the past.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
