English term or phrase: Whole-Souled Woman

This is a rough English translation of a Jewish/Hebrew girl's name. I would like the nearest English character spelling and/or (if possible) the Hebrew character spelling. The name may also translate as "friend". Thanks!

Robin Lee Benjamin

נפשיה

Explanation:
Nafshiah: I've never heard of the name but every day an Israeli is born and given a name that didn't exist the day before. If you want to be the first Nafshiah, you're welcome.

whole-souled woman רעיה (Ra'aya)

Explanation:
You said the translation could also mean "friend", and Raya is a soul-mate (also used to mean wife or partner). It's a well known name, and has the beauty of what you seem to be looking for
