Muslim boy names uk

[Mummyxxxx]

Im looking for a strong masculine Muslim boys name. So far I have been recommended
Khalid
Zayn
Zaid
Hakim
Riad
Riaz
Rashid
Arshad
Asad

My number 1 option is Khalid as I think it sounds nice and masculine at the same time.

• The reason I want a more masculine name is because my husband is quite masculine so likely my boy will grow up to be the same.

My favourites off your list would be
Zaid
Riad
Riaz

Names I’ve heard more recently which i like/suit the boys i know are

Laith
Afraz
Ahsan

I think Zaid is nice! I would probably avoid Zayn because it reminds me of the 1D pop star. Not that it’s a super bad association, but I wouldn’t want it to be the association people made iykwim. Riaz is also nice!

I recently met a little boy named Ayaan which I just thought was lovely.

My favourite on your list is Rashid.

I like Hakim
What about any of the Prophet names? Zakariya, Solomon, Noah, Idrees, Ismail, yusuf

Not sure what you mean by "masculine" tbh.

Just to warn you - tough dads often have highly sensitive sons! It’s a thing. If you expect your son to be just like his dad, you’re setting yourself (and your son) up for a tricky time.

Hamza
Yusuf
Isa
Musa

Mashallah beautiful names, insha'Allah I'm also expecting a boy and stick for names. So far we have;
Zakariya, Zubayr, AbdurRahman, Khalid, and Yusuf.

Tariq and Ismail are two of my favourite Muslim boys' names.

@beststepforward I mean masculine as just a strong Muslim name in general. The reason I say this is because a name can basically change someone's life experience which is true.

Khalid yusuf and zubayr @MadamMaltesers

Tariq was also a name recommended @itssquidstella

@Ayupchuck1 @Kanaloa I like Zaid and the meaning of the name

@Saynotothefishtank I mean I live near Manchester and it's not very pleasant so you would have to be tough here for a boy.

Zaid is my favourite from your list, the others are nice too but quite like Zaid.

Rashid is lovely

Ali

Khalid - will be said in several ways - Kalid, Kaleed, Halid, Haleed etc
Zayn - ok
Zaid - is it said as Zide?
Hakim - is it Hack-im or Hack-eem
Riad - makes me think of moroccan hotel
Riaz - Fiaz?
Rashid - Rash?
Arshad - not sure
Asad - is it Lion?

Aariz
Taha
Taimur
Jehangir

Laith omar and Ali are also options @FayCarew

I like both Omar and Ali, @Mummyxxxx . I don't particularly like Khalid, but that's because I worked with one and everyone seemed to say it differently.

I know a Zayn (no sure how he spelt it) and he's a lovely lad, and the name seems uncomplicated.

Omar and Umar are basically the same name, but the arabic pronunciation is different, I think. Omar makes me think of the famous actor, Sharif, but that wasn't his birth name.

Surname is Mahmoud so quite a strong ethnic surname. I like Laith Omar/umar Khaled and Ali
