Islamic baby names beginning with O

Islamic tradition asks two things of a name: that its meaning be good, and that it not claim for a child what belongs to God alone. Every name listed on this page is checked against both, which is why a pleasant-sounding name with an unhappy meaning does not appear here.

None of the names starting with this letter are Quranic in the strict sense, but each one has been checked for meaning and for the rule against divine-only titles before it was listed.

Questions about Muslim names starting with O

How many Muslim baby names start with O?
AsrNaam lists 46 of them. Across boys and girls together the letter O accounts for 46 researched names, 28 for boys and 18 for girls. Every one has its Arabic spelling, its meaning, and its letter-by-letter Ilm ul Huroof reading.
What Arabic letter does O correspond to?
There is no single answer, which is what makes this letter interesting. Most often O stands for Ain (ع), which opens 19 of these names. It can also stand for Hamza, Waw and Alif. Each of those Arabic letters has its own element and divine name in the Science of Letters, so two names that look alike in English can read very differently.
Which Muslim baby name starting with O is most popular?
By what visitors actually search for and open on this site, Osama, Oumayma and Ould lead the letter O. The settled meaning of Osama is: Lion, the brave young commander chosen by the Prophet at seventeen. Popularity is worth knowing, but the tradition weighs meaning first.
Are all names starting with O Islamic names?
Not automatically. A name becomes Islamic through its meaning and through the absence of any claim on what belongs to God alone, not through its spelling or its first letter. Every name listed here has been checked on both counts.
What is the Ilm ul Huroof reading of a name starting with O?
Open any name on this page and you will find it: the name broken into its Arabic letters, each letter with its element, its abjad value and the divine name it is associated with, then a reading of the whole. It is a tradition for reflection, not for prediction.
