Muslim/Arabic names??

[Gowie3112]

My OH is muslim so I want a name to commemorate him. For a girl I'm kinda set on Mariyah Alexandra. Mariyah means 'One who is pure' and Alexandra is my mums name. A boys name is harder as I don't really like many lol. Does anybody have any suggestions??

I've found the perfect name for a boy: Eren! It means 'saint' in turkish!! Very happy now

Hi
My dh is also muslim so we are choosing names which have meanings but cross over both Arabic and English that we both like so looked into quite a bit.

Here are a couple of boys names I like - I found it difficult to find ones I like:
Aadam (my dh's son's name)
Zakarriya (Zak)

Still looking on a name I am set on!

It is difficult but really important to me. If its a boy hes going to be called Eren Firat now as Firat is his dads name.
My OH may not stick around once he finds out he's going to be a dad but i still want my son or daughter to know her heritage. (S)he'll be kurdish/arabic (dads side) and English/italian/Irish my side. Its terrible trying to find the right name lol!!!

I think there are quite a few pretty names for girls in Arabic. I liked Anisa and Saffron.

Jasmine, Camilla and Layla all come from Arabic I think.

Also Eleanor/Elinor I found out recently does

My OH is also muslim, we have been throwing around soo many names, wanted maybe an arabic first name and english middle name, we both really like amirah which means princess & i like the names keira & daisy as maybe middle names x

Anisah is my dh's daughter's name - i do love that name

I like the name Eren but my best friend is called Erin so too similar for me.
When do you plan on telling your OH? I hope he does hang around x

At the mo our number one girl's name is Mia, lots of good choices for girls limited on boys!
Eleanor is my confirmation name, I took that from my Nanna, it was her name which I love.

My dad is Arab, so I considered a lot of arabic names when naming my LO.

It sounds like you are set on a boys name, so my favorite girls names are:

Hayfa (was my grandma's name), Yasmine, Ayla, Aliyah, Amineh, Marya (pronounced mar-ee-ah)

I think it is sooo special that you are naming your LO something Arabic. I hope your OH appreciates it
