Should I change my daughter’s name? Please advise, thank you

I had a baby girl 3 months ago, and named her Jemima after seeing this name on an Islamic website. I believed it to be an Arabic name meaning ‘little dove’. And I also thought it was the name of Hazrat Ayoub’s daughter. I was questioned about it a couple of times and when I did some research I was not able to find any Islamic reference to this name, only Biblical references.
