"Variant of Fatima"
The name Faduma is commonly a female name from the "Arabic" origin.
Faduma is a Somali spelling of Fatima, the name of a daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. Somali writes Arabic names in its own Latin conventions, and the same name appears in Somali as Fadumo and Faduma. The form is distinct from the Arabic spelling rather than a separate name with its own root.
Fatima means "Daughter of the prophet".
The pronunciation of Faduma is fah-DOO-mah.
