Diamonds are a girl's best friend, and with Kohinoor, your little one is destined for a radiant life. Inspired by the renowned Kohinoor diamond, it means "mountain of light," making it a shining choice for your little ray of sunshine. First mentioned in 1306, the Kohinoor diamond, once weighing 186 carats, resembled an oval white-cut diamond, similar to a hen's egg. This precious gem earned its name, Kohinoor, a Persian phrase coined by Nadir Shah in 1739. While there is a historical curse associated with boys wearing this jewel, we are confident that, as a girl's name, your little Kohinoor will be as safe as a turtle tucked snugly inside its shell.
