Habiba (حبيبة) is the feminine form of Habib — from the Arabic root ḥ-b-b, meaning "to love." Habiba means "the beloved one" or simply "beloved." The masculine Habib is famously the title given to the Prophet Muhammad (Habib Allah, "the Beloved of God").
Habiba is one of the most popular girl's names across the Arab world, particularly in Egypt and the Levant. It is rising in Western records as Arab families bring it forward.
Habiba reduces to two — the number of love returned.
