Question

what is the meaning of the name Sabirathun Nooraniya?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

The word Sabirathun is from the word sabr which means to be patient. (A-Mawrid Pg.687)

Nooraniyah is from the word nur which means light, brightness, luminous. (Names for Muslim children ; Pg.82;  A-Mawrid Pg.1195)

Hence Sabirathun Nooraniya means the patient one with light.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
