First of all Congratulations to you and Mr Maroush!
I really like the name Roman, but when I was searching names for my sisters baby who is not born yet, I couldnt find Roman as a muslim name? We want it to be a muslim name, But among all of the names my votes goes to Roman.

If I remember correctly.....Onaysa was the name of one of Hazrat Ayesha's servants.....I believe it means "friendly" or something to that effect. I will have to find the book we took it from.....

Agree on Aaryan. Yes, I know the pronunciation is different but if you live in the West most goray will read it and their first association will be with Nazism. Though I think Aryaana for a girl is OK----I think most people here are used to seeing it spelled Ariana.

For pronunciation reasons I would stay away from Nael and Mahir---these will present big pronunciation challenges for people in the West. In America people would pronounce them "Nail" and "Ma-Heer". And even after you correct them 90% will never get it right.

Sulaiman does have personality! And when he's a baby you could call him Sully if you want and that would be cute.

What about Nadim? I always thought it's a great name but I don't see many Pakistanis using it.

Adel:

The way goray people (and not just goray people, people from any western area) will say "Adel", he will be referred to as in the girl's name, Adel/Adele. Trust me. Wherever he goes, people will assume he's a girl and he'll mostlikely be bullied in school cause of this. You don't see many male CEOs/CFOs with girl's names. I just think it will hurt him in the long run. So just keep that in mind.

It's a lovely name, but consider Adil instead of Adel. The meaning is the same.







Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.
