  1. The name Dunia has several different meanings and origins:
    1. Arabic origin: In Arabic, Dunia (دُنْيا) means "world" or "life." It is derived from the Arabic word "Dunya," which refers to the temporal world. It symbolizes the material world or earthly life.

    2. Swahili origin: In Swahili, Dunia means "earth" or "world." Swahili is a Bantu language widely spoken in East Africa, particularly in countries such as Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda.
