Origin and meaning of Leen
Leen is a tender Arabic girl's name meaning 'tenderness, softness, gentleness': the root līn evokes what is supple and mild, and by extension a sweet, affectionate nature. It is a modern name much loved in the Arabian Peninsula and the Levant, chosen for its bright simplicity and light sound. Outside the Arab world it is little known, though it echoes Western spellings such as Lin or Leena.
