Aya!
Det var jeg også hooked på indtil jeg fandt ud af det betød et vers i koranen... Så blev det altså lidt for muslimsk til mig...
Du har ret i det er muslimsk, men det er bare så smukt synes jeg. Det betyder også flere ting hvad jeg har kunne læse mig frem til. 
I min gamle navne notesbog står der Aya: arabisk navn der betyder strålende og skindende, på japansk betyder det farverig. Ayah er arabisk og betyder mirakel og tegn.
Alt dette er også noget jeg har gemt i årenes løb:
The name AYA
It is a beautiful name with beautiful meanings
In Japanese, it can mean "colourful one" or "beautiful", depending on the character used (Japanese has three scripts) also meaning woven silk.
In Korean, it may come from "loved"
Aya is also a reasonably common Muslim first name.
The verses of the Quran are also sometimes referred to as Aya's.In Arabic the name " "Ayah" (آية ʾāyatun, plural "Ayat" آيات ʾāyātun) is the Arabic word for 'sign' or 'miracle', cognate with Hebrew 'ot', meaning 'sign'. The word usually refers to each one of the 6236 verses found in the Qur'an (6348 ayat counting the basmalas). Muslims regard each ayah of the Qur'an as a sign from Allah."
In Old German, it can relate to "sword" or the big rakes that are used on fields by farmers ("eg" in Dutch)
Then there is the meaning of "wisdom", as in Aya Sophia (the church/mosque in Istanbul)
Aya was also a Sumerian goddess, wife of the sungod Shamash, or UTU.
It is also the name of an Israeli bird of prey or Fly swiftly
Someone pointed out to me that aya in Spanish (the pronunciation) means there, over there.
