Yes surely language and culture are equally as important.

filka · 01/09/2020 20:45

I think you need to give everyone a clue about your cultural background...

I've got Ibrahim Hakeem picked out if we have a boy. We've thought about it and I'm liking the idea of naming our children after the prophets or other great names in Islam.

I like them all. I was told that Irfan was unusual, but actually a very good friend at University was also called that.
