What name(s) mean “Allah’s chosen one” for a lady reverting to Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I know a lady who wants to revert to Islam after being informed about the truth of the religion and Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him). She wants to change her name to have a Muslim name. She wants to have a name which means “Allah’s chosen one” as she feels Allah has chosen her be on the true path. I request you to please provide such a name(s) for the lady.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Aasiya (آسیہ), Maryam (مریم), Safiyyah (صفیہ), Ruqayyah (رقیہ) etc

Allah knows Best!
