About Arabic names

Arabic names are built on meaning, drawn from a language where nearly every name traces to a root word — nobility, light, praise, beauty. Many honor faith directly, and family names traditionally chain generations together through forms like ibn, meaning son of. Their sounds travel well: long open vowels and soft consonants that read gracefully in English, from Amir to Layla to Omar.

Meaning and origin are editorial; U.S. popularity comes from Social Security Administration public files.
