What People Usually Mean by This Name
From the Arabic root و-ج-د (to find, to feel deeply, to experience presence), Wajda is the classical noun: ecstasy, the rapture of finding. In Sufi vocabulary the same root gives wajd, the state of the seeker's heart when the veil momentarily lifts.
The classical Andalusian Sufi Ibn al-Farid used wajd of the intoxication of divine presence. To name a daughter Wajda is a bold act, marking her as the child whose emotional life a family hopes will be capable of the highest kinds of feeling.
Wajda is used across the Arab world. It asks that a daughter be capable of both the ordinary joys and the extraordinary ones.
