Arabic Girls' Names

Currently 464 Arabic girls' names — every one with a sourced meaning, a meaning category, and (where relevant) the original script. New names are added regularly as we expand coverage. Use the filters above to narrow by starting letter, meaning category, or popularity — or open the Name Generator for even more filters.

We tag each name with one of four tiers to help you understand where it sits in current usage:

• Popular — currently high-usage names, often in the top 100 of contemporary charts.
• Classic — well-established names in continuous use for generations.
• Vintage — historically important names less common today but experiencing revival.
• Rare — distinctive names carried by fewer than 1 in 10,000 children today.

Tiers are updated annually based on registry data where available and our editorial judgment for less-documented traditions.

Two ways: use the 'meaning category' filter above to narrow to a single category (light, warrior, divine, virtue, etc.), or visit our Names By Meaning directory for cross-cultural meaning browsing. Every Arabic name is also tagged in our full Arabic origin hub with a category breakdown.

Every individual name page includes IPA notation, an anglicized pronunciation, a native pronunciation, and an audio player button so you can hear the name spoken correctly. Click any name in the grid above to open its full page. Where a name has multiple regional pronunciations (like Ahmed in Arabic versus Ahmet in Turkish), each variant is presented separately.

Yes. Every meaning on this site is sourced from standard Arabic references and, where names carry religious or cultural significance in Islamic tradition, reviewed by scholars whose credentials appear on the individual name pages. If a meaning is disputed among scholars, we say so on the page. If it's uncertain, we say so. We never invent etymology. For our full editorial approach, see our About page and Disclaimer.
