    Whats behind your name? (OP)


    Whats your muslim name and why did you choose it?

    Mine is Jamila and I chose it because I was taking French in highschool and you have to choose a french name (or a name from a french speaking country) and Jamila sounded pretty to me. So once i learned it was a muslim name I kept it because I was already use to being called it.

    I had no choice either of choosing a name for myself. But Alhamdulillah my name, Abdul Mājid reads Slave of the Glorified One.

    Re: Whats behind your name?

    i chose muhaba which (i believe) means beloved in arabic becuase everyone loves me. LOL. and so i thought that name was appropriate, but it's not my real name. in urdu, the t at the end of the word is also pronounced so the word is muhabat which means love and since i love everything and everyone in the universe, that is also appropriate.

    Abdulahii your name reminds me of Abdullah Ibn Abbas who was the cousin of the Prophet SAW and also a mufassir.

    Re: Whats behind your name?

    A lot of people keep posting their username and its meaning this is not what I mean
    I am asking new muslims (hence under the new muslim section ) what they chose as their muslim name and why they chose it.
    Since a few born muslims have posted I guess its okay to post your name and its meaning since you had no say so in choicing your name.

    Re: Whats behind your name?

    ^ oh i didn't realize that. you should've pointed out in your first post.

    BTW i just want to point out that a new revert doesn't need to change their nonmuslim name upon reverting unless the name has a kuffar meaning, for example if a name means "disobedient" or is the name of an idol. So for example if the name Serena means calm there's no need to change it.
