Ximena

Ximena is a girl’s name of Spanish origin. It derives from the Hebrew name Simeon, which means "one who hears.” It's prevalent in Spanish-speaking nations like Mexico, and a popular alternative spelling is Jimena. In the 11th century, the wife of the Spanish military hero El Cid was named Ximena. Upon his death, she took over as ruler. Today, several well-known Spanish-speaking actresses bear the name, including Ximena Navarrete of Mexico and Ximena Herrera of Bolivia.
