Struggling with these, sorry.

As am I

[NoLA2356]

Lol guess theyre not for everyone! Looking for an arabic/multicultural boy name as my husband and I are american/arab.

[CherryRedDMs]

Not Basil if it’s not pronounced like the herb, he’ll be sick of correcting people.
I like Saif.

[toastofthetown]

I love Laith. Think Basil with a soft S would be an uphill battle where I am, maybe different where you are.

[wellingtonsandwaffles]

Laith is the only one I got right pronouncing so that would be the “easiest” for your future DS. Quite nice sounding too.

[Bobsyer]

Do they mean something? Or are they names you've made up because you like the sound?

Sorry I dislike them all. I don't even understand what you mean by Basil with a soft S.

[Lightswitch123]

Sorry but no

OP here. I should add open to suggestions for a multicultural/arabic boy name that is not adam, aiden, or zane/zain/ziad/zeid.

[NoLA2356]

Yes these are all common arabic boy names.

[AdaColeman]

Basil, great name and gives him the super initials B A M !

[vitta]

Sami?

Saif, great name. My cat is called basil and while it js a fantastic name it is more of an animal name to me than a person name. My DH grandfather was called it but I just don't think it's ready for a come back yet

[Babyfg]

I actually really like laith. It rolls off the tongue really nice. And I think it's easy to pronounce etc. It's beautiful

[PercyPigIsMyPinkPal]

I used to know a lovely man called Laith and I know a teenage Saif but prounced Seff.
I like Basil but my immediate thought is Fawlty.

Laith is my favourite.

[TheBeautifulSouth44]

I like Laith

[SummaLuvin]

I like Laith.

Not familiar with Saif, don't immediately love it, but don't take against it either.

Like PP where I am you will struggle to get the correct pronunciation for Basil - as it looks like a familiar word people will assume pronunciation like the herb and you will be constantly correcting.

[GiltEdges]

Like Saif / Laith

[wingsofabird]

I like Laith

[BubbleCoffee]

I like Basil.

[KirstenBlest]

Not keen on any of them. Saif is the best but it will be spelt Safe
