[Opinions] Re: My Top10 - Arabic Names
in reply to a message by Felie
I'm slightly biased, as I grew up around a lot of Arabs and have an Arabic name myself.
MALES
Rami is one of my personal faves, after Rami Malek a famous Egyptian American actor
Qays, another good one. Sometimes spelled "Kyce" bc "Qays" might make English tongues mispronounce it to rhyme with "days"
Amin and Hassan = pretty straightforward names
Abbas, Feres, Ghassan = maybe a little hard to pronounce
tbh I'm skeptical about "Iskandar" bc I've never heard of it
FEMALES
I really like Nour, it's a common unisex name & so nice and simple
Zahra is also pretty common, it means flower but if you're going for a floral name Warda (rose) would also work!
Karima, Jamila = pretty straightforward pronounciation
Fairuz, Hadiyya = maybe not
Basma is pronounced "bess(like Tess)-ma" despite the A lol
Bilqis is the Queen of Sheba in Islamic legend, she was awesome, intelligent, great woman 10/10 would use
