Maanasa,
I assume, these would be the near meanings:
Mohini- beautiful one, one who charms the mind. From MahaVishnu's manifestation as a female form.
tapaswini- a female engaged in tapas,meditation. A female hermit
Shalini- beautiful one, one with lovely limbs
Salini- I checked this one out, so the following is from
Devotion to Lord Murugan one of six sections of Hinduism
Salini is a chaste woman who guards pregnant women. Salini is supposed to be another name of Arundathi. Pls verify this. I may be inaccurate.
Malini- a garlended one. In LAkshmi Ashtottaram there it is said, 'Harineem Hema Malineem'
