Latifah means kind, generous, caring, beautiful, keeper-of-secrets, and a lot more in Arabic. I should know :)

[@mophie1374]

Keeper of secret what kind arabic u on to. Maybe it be a synonym for beautiful like how u say damn she is nice like she is beautiful u can maybe use it like that but the literal meaning is kind, nice, like a good hearted person but not secret keeper lmao. Istagfurallah 😂😂😂😂

[@KingJericho]

latifa doesn't mean generous, beautiful, keeper-of-secrets , don't make stuff up

[@zorbajevon]

My name zorba is Greek obviously. It means to live each day. Not everyoart of one has to be lived up to.

@@lahma7819 it's all true, except for keeper-of-secrets. That could be Ameena
