صحیح مسلم · Hadith 5608
Zainab, daughter of Umm Salama, reported: My name first was Barra. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) gave me the name of Zainab. Then there entered (into the house of Allah's Prophet as a wife) Zainab, daughter of Jahsh, and her name was also Barra, and he gave her the name of Zainab.
