Is JASIYA a good name?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
We have named our daughter JASIYA, because it is a short name and less used.Is it a good name? Some people say that its meaning is not good. Please guide us.

Answer

(Fatwa: 209/179/L=1432)

Jasiya means: female who rests against knees. As the meaning of Jasiya is not much good, hence it is better to change her name with the names of the holy wives, holy daughters of the Prophet (peace be upon him) or Sahabiyat.
