Name meaning and origin

Sena is formed from the word sana (praise, commendation) in the Arabic language; in Azerbaijani onomastics it is recorded as the simple form of the name Sanaya. The word, pronounced as sena in Turkish, is also used as shena in Kurdish, gaining a shade of brilliance as well.

Sena, which has become very popular in Turkey in recent decades, has also spread to Azerbaijan as a short and pleasant-sounding girl name. Since its meaning is clearly positive, there is no Islamic objection to the name's use.
