As a given name, Tevhida (also rendered Tawhida, Tawhīdah) appears in Bosnian and Ottoman-Turkish usage as a devotional or theologically inspired personal name; it is relatively rare compared with other religiously derived names. Linguistically, the name is the feminine nominal form that signals relation to or embodiment of the attribute expressed by tawhīd. Families choosing Tevhida commonly intend to emphasize faith in divine unity; related names and concepts include Tawhida, Tawhid and the shorter devotional name Iman. The name is attested in Bosnian community records and Ottoman-era registers, though it is not a Qur’anic proper name (the concept of tawhīd appears throughout the Qur’an rather than as a personal name).
