Arabic names, many of them religious, are very varied and original, and more and more people choose to baptize your son or daughter with one of them.
In this article we propose a list of up to 70 Arabic names for your son (or daughter) together with their meaning (or meanings, in any case), so that you can choose the one you like best and understand what it means.
What name to choose for your son or daughter?
When we have a child, one of the funniest (and at times controversial) topics that arise around him/her is choosing a name. Sometimes disputes arise with the couple, with the family... because each one wants a different name (and she has her reasons!)
On the other hand, we don't know if the fact that there are so many names to choose from makes things worse or easier. Be that as it may, we end up choosing the name based on how much we like how it sounds, if we imagine ourselves saying this name all our lives, what person(s) it reminds us of, etc.
Many times we choose names from a more distant origin, and it is a reality that in other cultures, countries and even continents, names can be very different and at the same time very original.
One of these origins is a country in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, where we find a multitude of Arabic names for your son. As we anticipated, in this article we propose up to 70 of them (both feminine and masculine), exactly to their original meaning. As we will see, many of them have more than one meaning
