Topic: Naming a Child Anaizah Fatima

(No-65991)

Q We would like to name our daughter "Anaizah Fatima." Is this a good name in terms of its meaning, and is it permissible to use?

a"Anaa'izah" (عَنَائِزَہ) is an Arabic word whose meanings include "to be separate," "to be distant," and "to strike with a spear or knife." Given these meanings, the combined name "Anaa'izah Faatimah" (عَنَائِزَہ فاطمه) is not suitable. However, naming the child simply "Fatima" is perfectly fine. Allah the Almighty knows best.
