Definition: Sawb (also spelled Seawb) is a Hebrew name meaning "shimmering star." It refers to the twinkling of stars as they appear in the night sky, much like how you might see a shimmering star from your bedroom window at night. The term 'sawb' typically describes a young girl or woman who appears very bright and dazzling while walking around with her hair down or she's holding something up high to show off.
