Name views

[Rossy01]

Hi guys just wanted some opinions on the name Khalif for a boy.

I like it!

I picked my first sons name and agreed my partner could choose our newborns name. Whenever I say it to friends & family I get a blank look lol so just wanted some views.

I like it!

Khalif (also Khalifa) has a very specific meaning in Islam: Successor to the Prophet Muhammad and leader of the Muslim government. www.islamic-dictionary.com/index.php?word=khalif

Since 2014, Khalif/Khalifa is the title used by the leader of ISIS/ISIL/the Islamic State.

It is also the name of the Sheikh of Abu Dhabi.

It is definitely a muslim/arabic name.

I've never heard it before.

Is it Ka-leef or Car-liff?

I like the first but not the second.

It's pronounced as the first one ka leef

If you are Muslim, use it. If not, think twice.

Hi. You know, I'm pregancy twice already)) My first baby was a boy. I spend a lot of time by searching really good name. Thank to this site babynamesgab.com/
I chosed really good one!)

As millymollymama said, if that name is part of your culture go ahead. If not I'd find it rather odd.
