Sami

FekkoTheLawyer · 08/10/2018 19:34

Sami is good - a good international name.

SemperIdem · 08/10/2018 19:33

Zaid or Nabeel.

CinnaMessala · 08/10/2018 08:07

I’ve always like Moutaz, as it’s not as popular as those listed. Noah is well trendy. The top boys’ names are Muhammad, Oliver and Noah Grin

Sami ☺

Balloondog · 08/10/2018 07:57

Sami or Zaid but that's I've got lovely relatives with those names so they remind me of them. As pp said; what part of the Arab world are you connected to? Some names that are really popular in some countries sound odd and out of place for others.

Sungura · 08/10/2018 05:44

Zaid is my preference.

Snipples · 08/10/2018 04:50

Other options could be Laith, Noah and Isaac which seems to be the trendy Arabic option atm. Good luck

PollyFlinderz · 08/10/2018 04:47

Sorry, from your list I’d go for Haytham or Zaid. They have more substance to them.

Another one for you - Jad

PollyFlinderz · 08/10/2018 04:40

Op, which region of the Arab world would your family relate to? So for eg, Ramzi would be almost unheard of in certain countries but would be extremely common in Egypt for example.

Thais everyone. Looks like there isn’t a clear winner. I will add Rami to the list. Nadeem sounds too much like Nadine for me.

Sami

BikeRunSki · 07/10/2018 21:42

Nabeel

sakura06 · 07/10/2018 21:40

Zaid

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 07/10/2018 21:39

Zaid. Do you like Nadeem OP? I've always loved that name.

grasspigeons · 07/10/2018 21:25

Sami or Haytham

PodgeBod · 07/10/2018 21:24

Nabeel

Faster · 07/10/2018 21:24

I know a lovely little Sami so that gets my vote!

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 07/10/2018 21:23

Zaid or Ramzi.

SneakySneaky · 07/10/2018 21:22

Nabeel (but I’m biased because I once taught a lovely kid called Nabil and it reminds me of him)

Dosmamas · 07/10/2018 21:18

I vote Haytham, lovely sounding name and a nick name of Hay or Hayth is cute.

bridgetreilly · 07/10/2018 13:18

I really like Ramzi.

firawla · 07/10/2018 12:52

I vote Haytham, all are nice though!

birthdayparty · 07/10/2018 12:48

Ramzi is nice. I also like Rami as a PP suggested.
