Origin:
hebrew
Name Root:
Maryâm / miryâm > MIRIAM
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Mariám ‎(Μαριάμ) and Maríā ‎(Μαρίᾱ),” found in the New Testament, meaning “bitterness, beloved, wished for a child.” Both New Testament names were forms of the Hebrew name “Maryâm / Miryâm.” The name is widely used for its associations with the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, and Saint Mary Magdalene, who was called an apostle to the apostles. The name may derive from an Egyptian word “Myr” (beloved) or “mr” (love), or even the Ancient Egyptian name “Meritamen” or “Merit-Amun,” meaning “beloved of Amun.” Mariam or (Arabic: Maryām) form, has been a popular name in predominantly Muslim countries due to the respect given to Mary, mother of Jesus, in Islam. Muslim parents want their daughters to be like Mary in her “chastity and demureness,” according to a 2006 IslamOnline.net article.

Color meaning: Black

Black is the color of the hidden, the secretive and the unknown, creating an air of mystery. It keeps things bottled up inside, hidden from the world. In color psychology the meaning of the color black is protection from external emotional stress. It creates a barrier between itself and the outside world, providing comfort while protecting its emotions and feelings, and hiding its vulnerabilities, insecurities and lack of self-confidence. In times of fear and uncertainty black contains the energy of the threatening unknown. In a positive state, black is seen as a restful emptiness into which anything may emerge and disappear once again. It is also mysterious, providing a sense of potential and possibility.
