1. The Hand of Fatima: This name is derived from Islamic beliefs and is named after Fatima, the daughter of the Prophet.
2. Hand of Miriam: In Jewish culture, the Hamsa is a symbol of the Hand of God. It is called the Hand of Miriam after the sister of Moses and Aaron.
3. The Hand of Mother Mary: This name comes from Christian tradition, where the symbol has been named after the mother of Jesus, Mary.
4. Hamesh: The word hamesh means five in Hebrew. It represents the name ‘Heh’ which is one of God’s many names.
