Heba is an Arabic name stemming from the word "al-Wahhab", or "the Provider". Thiele is of German origin. I am neither Arab nor German.
Heba means "gift." Thiele is something akin to "ruler", as of land.
I used to say my name was pronounced "like hiccup." A librarian didn't like that comparison because it was unpleasant, and asked what my name meant. When I told them it was "gift," they said that was perfect - that's how they would remember the short-I pronunciation. I don't think I'll ever forget that interaction.
