Nice sounding muslim baby names

[MummyJasmin]

Boys & girls please as we don't know what we're having.

Thank you x

I love Khalid, but would possibly avoid because of the guaranteef mispronunciation. Love Noor, Rohaan and Samir from pp list. Noor is gorgeous, but again would avoid it if in areas where it doesn't work with the accent (here in S.wales it would be destroyed with an oo-uh sound!).

Miriam is beautiful. Nn mimi. I like Nadia too. And Mythily.

Wow so many lovely suggestions!

@LadyMonicaBaddingham @Etinox Mariam was always my first choice, but OH has always vetoe'd it as it's his niece's name (even though she lives in America!) Waaa.
My son is called Yusuf :)

@Pieceofpurplesky I would have never considered Maymunah, as looked at it I would have assumed it was 'complicated'? But when you say it, it actually rolls off the tongue, sounds pretty and has Islamic roots :) What are your roots? (Asian/English?) I ask as I'm always keen to hear what Arabic names sound like to someone of a different culture :)

MummyJ I am a teacher (teach English and am English) I just love the name and it sounds so pretty. It also helps that she was a delightful pupil

I like Samar (summer) for a girl and Sofian and Eisah for boys 😊

@MummyJasminfamily names, particularly if they're the same generation are lovely imo!

I like Yusuf and Miriam. Maryam too. Zain? Adam? Zarah?

Samara for a girl is lovely imo
Or
Lana
Lina
Emira
Miriam

I'll try again, lol... You clearly have great taste in names!

Khalil
Dalia

I love Aysha. And Aishah and less so Ayesha.

I met a Sakiba recently which I thought was pretty.

I like Hussain. Reminds me of a gorgeous baby boy I sat next to on a long haul flight! He would be about 20 now.

I like Imran too.

Aishah, Nafisa and Khadeeja I like. I also know a Mariam which I think is lovely. Aishahs are usually quite intelligent too, in my experience, as are Hanas (I know a couple of Muslim Hanas, though it's not exclusively a Muslim name). Oh, and I know an Eliza (pronounced E-lee-za). And Tasleem.

For the boys, I like Hassan, but not a fan of Hussein (and they are so often sibling pairs). I also like Abdulqadir, Aryaan and Yusuf.

Ah, didn't see your update sorry. As PP said, Zara/Zahra/Zarah is lovely. And Sabina is nice too, also Samirah, Samina, Saairah and Sahiba.

Oh and Nishita

For girls Noor is lovely- like Noor Jahan
I like Ayesha, Zahra, Layla, Farrah, Mona... All easy to pronounce in English ...

For boys, I like Ibrahim, Yusuf, and Kamran

Nilofer sounds lovely

Aleena & Zayd

Girls:
Zada
Yasmin
Taliha

Boys:
Amir

Such lovely suggestions! xxx

I love Mai and Fai for girls.

For boys, my favourite is Firas. I also teach a lot of boys named Saif, which I think is lovely.

Busmum79 my husband too is Muslim and I'm not so we settled on Yasmin and Hanna. I have lots of students with lovely names:

Girls

Hanan
Widad
Saja

Boys

Shams which is often Sam
Ezzadine
Omar

I love Miriam! Also, Zehra/Sera, Yasmin and Safiye

Boys names are so much harder! We are looking for Turkish names and struggling with boys....current fave is Aslan.

A muslim friend of mine has a girl called Ameenah which I think is gorgeous.

Asmara, Saira or Sira, Ghazala, Ruby (different spellings of this to)
Yusuf (version of Joseph) & Mikal

How about Amani or Lana for a girl? Zaynadeen for a boy?

These are the ones I personally like Op..

Seher
Husna
Laiba

Miriam is so pretty
