Shaba is a name for a female used in some Islamic countries like Maldives.
It refers to an Arabic word ( شابة,شبة ) that means "young" in feminine and also used to refer to a beautiful thing to tell something is much beautiful and vital.
The word was used by the ancient Arabs to name a male "Shab" and a female "Shaba,Shabba" specially in a tribe called "banou shabeeba" "بنو شبيبة" , while now used only in no-arabian Islamic countries as a female name.
Still used in Arabian countries to tell something is young, vital, and beautiful specially in the Western African Arabian countries.
