Names for kids are among the most popular searches on the Internet these days. Everyone isinterested in names, especially new parents trying to come up with the "perfect name" for theirchild. Muslims care about this more than anyone else.

Bismillah Rahman Raheem. Allahu 'Alim. Allah has all Knowledge. This is a good questions. Butexactly what does Islam say about "Muslim Names"?

We think of names like "Abdullah (slave of God)" or "Amatullah (female slave of God)"; "Abdurahman(slave of Merciful God)"; "Noor Udeen(light of the religion)", as being "Muslim names".

So you may surprised to learn - there are no real "official Muslim names".

But many of these types of names were already in use before the time of the prophetMuhammad, peace be upon him.

However, we Muslims like to look for are names for our children with nice meanings or names toremind of certain qualities we hope for in our kids.

With that in mind, we offer some names we've been told have meanings of names (for girls) inArabic like:

Afaaf - chaste, pure * Aishah – alive * Aliyah – high status & eminence * Aminah – at peace,fearless * Arwa
