One way to find Szime's American name might be to track down the death certificates of her children, since death certificates often include the names of the parents.

Three births certificates list my Hungarian great grandfather, Ignatz (Nathan) FRIEDMAN's first wife as Szime. However I am searching for a manifest to New York for Szime FRIEDMAN around 1892 and have not been able to find anything. >
