Tahani Al-Jamil

Tahani Al-Jamil is a principal character in The Good Place, played by Jameela Jamil.

Tahani is Pakistani-English. She was born in Pakistan, raised in high society England, and consequently was very well educated. In both her life and afterlife she is regarded as highly intelligent, a brilliant conversationalist, and a wonderful hostess. She is exceptionally attractive and very fashionable. As she explains when initially introducing herself, the name Tahani means "congratulations" and Al-Jamil means "beautiful" in Arabic—so her full name actually means "Congratulations Beautiful."
