Meaning:Thorny cactus; Patience
Baby Saprina may have tough skin, but they have a heart made of gold that makes everything worth their time! Saprina, is derived from sabra, a prickly pear cactus common in Jewish culture. Although this moniker may mean "thorny cactus" in Hebrew, it also has an Arabic connection to sabr, a fundamental teaching of Islam meaning "patience." If one has the mindset to carefully peel away the tough skin of the sabra fruit, they'll find a sweet and delicate interior that can be used in jams and all sorts of cooking. Like the prickly pear cactus, Saprina may have a hard shell, but with enough love and patience, they will show their gentle and kindhearted nature.
