Greetings,
We were able to get a list of Arabic women's names from Da'ud ibn Auda, who does a great deal of research into Arabic naming practices. The names on the list are not specific to Andalusia or your period, but the majority are appropriate for Arabic-speaking cultures across the world. If you have a question about a specific name.
The general pattern for Arabic women's names in your period was a given name followed by "bint" (daughter of) <father's name>.
If you have a question about a specific name, or would like other assistance, please let us know.
In service,
