Congratulations!! She is absolutely beautiful.
Our daughter's Ethiopian name is Sifan...like your daughter, and we were told by Tsegay that it means, "for your sake". It has such special meaning. He explained that her birth mother named her knowing she was unable to care for her and wanted her to always know that she gave her up because she loved her so. I cried when he told us that. We kept that name for her middle name and will share it's meaning with her when she is older.
