Full Meaning of Eta

Eta is an indirect Quranic name for girls that means “growth”, “maturing”, and “yield” (the fruit that a tree gives). It is derived from the A-T-Y root (to give, to bring, to come) which is used in many places in the Quran.

Only those who believe in God, the Day of Judgment, perform their prayers, give the Zakah, and have fear of God alone have the right to establish and patronize the mosque of God so that perhaps they will have the right guidance. (Quran 9:18)

87. And do not disgrace me on the Day they are resurrected. 88. The Day when neither wealth nor children will help. 89. Except for him who comes to God with a sound heart.” (Quran 26:87-89)
