Is Ahuva the same as Ahava? Or a different meaning?

I think Ahuva is beloved and ahava is to love. If I’m not mistaken

Most that I could think of were already mentioned. (By the way, a nickname for Yakira is Kira, if you wanted a cute nickname for that.)
But if you wanted to branch out a bit, the name "Liat" implies beloved, even though it's not from the same shoresh. היאלי, pronounced Hee-lee has a similar meaning, and comes from a beautiful meaning in a pasuk:
מָה-אָהַבְתִּי תוֹרָתֶךָ: כָּל-הַיּוֹם, הִיא שִׂיחָתִי. מֵאֹיְבַי, תְּחַכְּמֵנִי מִצְוֹתֶךָ: כִּי לְעוֹלָם הִיא-לִי

Liba is yidish for ahuva meaning beloved
yekara
yakira
Yekarat Libi means "precious one of my heart" which I think it beautiful
Liat means you're mine, not quite the same. heelee would mean she is mine and it's referring to the Torah not to a person.

Libi is short for liba but it's ALSO my heart in Hebrew. lev - heart - . Libi - my heart.

I got used to people liking to use names that aren’t real Hebrew names here on imamother. A lot of names are really French, English, Russian or come from other languages and we give them a little twist and pretend they’re Hebrew. I think where I’d draw the line is at giving my baby an Arabic name, but of course you do you op and choose whatever name you like.

Sounds like Asisa, which you say after someone sneezes in Hungarian
