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 of choosing a name for myself for i'm born Muslim. But Alhamdulillah my name is Mohamed I thank Allah that my Dad named me that. Mohamed means praiseworthy its also the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) name. As for the sister who asked what does Omar mean it means flourishing, long-lived, eloquent and gifted speaker. Also sister worship Allah (SWT) forget Christianity its false man-made evil.
My real name is Hossam, which means sword. And I learned that in a lot of [Islamic] poetry the term they use is "Hossam Ad-Deen", which means "Sword of Faith." And I thought it was an interesting name.
My name means Good news It is written in the Holy Quraan for about 15 times Two times my name is written in Quran with the name of Noble Prophet Ibraheem AS
And there are other reasons so i love my name so much

I really like Layla. It means night princess. I chose it as its simular to my birth name but I am quite scared of the dark tho. I dont really use it. I still use my birth name as it is the wife of 1 of the prophets in the new testment. That name means Oath of God. I think that sutes me better than night princess.
O Allah, I seek help from you. I seek your forgiveness. I seek your guidance. I believe in you.
My name is Sa'ad chosen by my parents, so I had no infulencce on the choice other than being born.
Saad is a male Arabic given name that means lucky and 22nd day of moon.
Saad ibn Abī Waqqās was an early convert to Islam and one of the important companions of the Islamic prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Born in 595, Sa'd was from the Banu Zuhrah clan of the Quraysh tribe,[1] and was a cousin to Aminah bint Wahb, mother of Muhammad.
He was one of the first to accept Islam.[1]
Sa'ad relates:
“ When my mother heard the news of my Islam, she flew into a rage. She came up to me and said: "O Sa'ad! What is this religion that you have embraced which has taken you away from the religion of your mother and father...? By God, either you forsake your new religion or I would not eat or drink until I die. Your heart would be broken with grief for me and remorse would consume you on account of the deed, you have done and people would censure you forever more.' 'Don't do (such a thing), my mother,' I said, 'for I would not give up my religion for anything.' However, she went on with her threat... For days she neither ate nor drank. She became emaciated and weak."
"Hour after hour, I went to her asking whether I should bring her some food or something to drink but she persistently refused, insisting that she would neither eat nor drink until she died or I abandoned my religion. I said to her, 'Yaa Ummaah! In spite of my strong love for you, my love for Allah and His Messenger is indeed stronger. By Allah, if you had a thousand souls and each one depart one after another, I would not abandon this religion for anything.' When she saw that I was determined she relented unwillingly and ate and drank.”
This was referenced in the Qur'anic verse 31:14-15.[1]'

I would not think I could live up to that name Akhi.And I dont think christopher is contradictory to Islam as Isa (P.B.U.H.) was a prophet,just not the final messenger to mankind.I had my doubts about christianity at a young age as far as the theory of trinity it just didnt make sense to me,First Why would Allah need a son?Secondly If Allah wanted a son why would Allah let him be crucified,And Isa (P.B.U.H.) even wasm related to have said to worship only Allah.Also being a student of history and learning of the council of Nicea ,The dead sea scrolls and other different things I knew something didnt make sense ya know?And then I heard the most beautifull thing the recitation and the adhan in arabic as it was intended,It still brings tears to my eyes,My heart feels as if it is about to burst,and there is a feeling of such happiness and peace.What is the meaning of Yaseen?I was thinking Ali,or Hamza
