Q: I wanted to clear a confusion regarding a child's name.

Regarding a girl's name we shortlisted "MINHA" which we thought means to be "grant of Allah". But when I searched for this word translation, it means "of which". Some relative told me (منحة) word means grant.

So I am not sure about this word pronunciation. Would this be pronounced as min-ha-tun or min-ha?
