However, today we can ask the same question as we look into how Arabic babies get their names. Moreover, what exactly goes into choosing both Arabic girl names and Arabic boy names? Today we\u2019ll look into answers for those questions as we explore how Arabs get their names.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-different-cultures-different-names\"><strong>Different Cultures, Different Names<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>First, when looking at how Arabs get their names, one must realize that it\u2019s quite different from the Western system. For example, in America, names usually have three parts: first name, middle name, and family name. Likewise, the Arabs also have a naming system; however, theirs consist of five parts instead of three. They are, in no particular order, the <em>ism<\/em>, <em>kunya<\/em>, <em>nasab<\/em>, <em>laqab<\/em>, and <em>nisba. <\/em>Thus, it\u2019s&nbsp; possible forArabs to go by five names and even sometimes more.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-ism\"><strong>Ism<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The ism is the first name that parents give the child at birth. Male <em>isms<\/em>, or Arabic baby boy names, include names like Abdullah, Abdul Aziz, Abdul Rahman, Adel, Hussein, Sa\u2019ud, and Omar. Likewise, female <em>isms<\/em>, or Arabic baby girl names, are names such as Leila, Ayisha, Salma, Nawal, and Samira. (You\u2019ll notice that many female Arabic names include the feminine \u201cah\u201d ending.)<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Arab parents tend to choose Arabic names with meaning.&nbsp; An example for boys is the name Laith which means \u201clion\u201d, \u201cstrong\u201d or \u201cbrave\u201d. For girls there are names like \u201cAbeer\u201d meaning \u201cscent\u201d, \u201cperfume\u201d or \u201cfragrance\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Further, not only Muslims follow this traditional naming system, but also Christian Arabs use the same system as well. However, instead of the Islamic Abdullah (\u201cSlave to God\u201d), you\u2019ll find names like \u201cButros\u201d, the Arab name for the disciple Peter.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-kunya\"><strong>Kunya<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You won\u2019t find the <em>kunya <\/em>written on a birth certificate. That\u2019s because it\u2019s more of an honorary title Arabs&nbsp; usually given to people with children. Hence, friends and neighbors would call the father of a boy named Ahmed \u201cAbu Ahmed\u201d (\u201cFather of Ahmed\u201d). Likewise, they would call Ahmed\u2019s mother \u201cUmm Ahmed\u201d (\u201cMother of Ahmed\u201d). Arabs use these honorary titles as a sign of respect much like other cultures use \u201cAunt\u201d or \u201cUncle\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>However, the <em>kunya<\/em> isn\u2019t only reserved for those with children. In fact, it\u2019s so important in some parts of Arab culture, Arabs will even give those without children <em>kunya<\/em>. In this case, the <em>kunya<\/em> would be symbolic of some personality trait &nbsp;of that person. For example,&nbsp; \u201cUmm Hurairah\u201d or \u201cmother of the cats\u201d might be the lady that cares for stray cats in the neighborhood. Likewise, \u201cAbu Khartoum\u201d, meaning \u201cfather of the chubby cheeks\u201d, might be your single uncle with chubby cheeks.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-nasab\"><strong>Nasab<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While parents have <em>kunya<\/em>, their children have <em>nasab<\/em> which starts with \u201cibn\u201d (\u201cson of\u201d) or \u201cbint\u201d (\u201cdaughter of\u201d). Moreover, the <em>nasab<\/em> always refers to the father. In fact, Arabs consider it an insult for the <em>nasab<\/em> to refer to the mother. <em>Nasab<\/em> usually follows the <em>ism <\/em>as in \u201cMahmoud ibn Mounis\u201d (\u201cMahmoud, son of Mounis\u201d) or \u201cSalma bint Ibrahim\u201d (Salma daughter of Ibrahim). Moreover the grandfather\u2019s and great-great grandfather\u2019s (and so on) names can be added as well. For example, Noor bint Abdulaziz ibn Muhammad ibn Faras (and so on) all the way back to Adam, presumably.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-laqab\"><strong>Laqab<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Simply put, the <em>laqab <\/em>is kind of like a nickname. Usually religious or descriptive, they, too, follow the ism. For example, you may meet someone called Ibrahim al-Fadl ibn Rashid. This roughly translates to Ibrahim the prominent son of Rashid (with the <em>laqab<\/em> \u201cal-Fadl\u201d meaning \u201cthe prominent\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, any name with the prefix \u201cAbd\u201d (meaning \u201cservant of\u201d)&nbsp; already has its own<em> laqab<\/em> and it\u2019s usually affixed to one of the names of Allah. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Further \u201cAbdul\u201d (also meaning \u201cservant of\u201d ) is not an <em>ism<\/em> nor is it ever used alone . It, too, is followed by one of the 99 names of Allah as in Abdul Rahman or \u201cThe servant of the merciful\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For the ladies, \u201cAmat\u201d is the feminine version of the <em>laqab<\/em> \u201cAbdul\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-nisba\"><strong>Nisba<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The <em>nisba<\/em> is much like the Western surname in that Arabs often use it as a last name.&nbsp; Usually, the <em>nisba <\/em>represents a person\u2019s occupation, &nbsp;where they are from, their tribe or their family. For example,&nbsp; if you meet someone named Mohammad al-Masri, it\u2019s pretty safe to say he\u2019s from Egypt as \u201cal-Masri\u201d means \u201cthe Egyptian\u201d.&nbsp; Likewise, Abdullah al-Khabaaz or \u201cAbdullah the Baker\u201d means that Abdullah is a baker or he comes from a family of bakers. Finally, you have Hussein al Hashemi&nbsp; which means \u201cHussein of the Hashemite family or tribe\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>These days, however, the <em>nisba<\/em> is not as popular as it once was. In fact, this is especially true among Egyptians and Lebanese who don\u2019t even use <em>nisba<\/em> anymore.<\/p>\n<p>So now you know how Arabic babies get their names. One thing to keep in mind, however, is that popular Arabic baby names change just as often as they do in the West. While there really hasn\u2019t been a shift in Arabic baby boy names, there has been a shift in girls\u2019 names. Names like Salma seem outdated these days with Aziza (\u201cbeloved, precious\u201d) and&nbsp; (believe it or not) Kalila becoming more popular.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Kaleela, are you looking to learn more about Arab culture or maybe even wanting to learn Arabic?
