Farhana Zia: Hello my name is Farhana Zia. I write under the name F. Zia and the F is for Farhana, not FAHANA or FARHANNAH, but FARHANA, where the R is rolled just a little. Farhana has its root in Farhan, a Persian/Farsi word meaning joy and happiness. Zia comes from Arabic and means light. So there you have it. Farhana Zia is F. Zia, joyous light.
