Let us start together on choosing Muslim names for your newborn baby girl, from the list below entailing the most popular Islamic name girls.
However, before selecting a meaningful Islamic name for your baby girl names, here are some important considerations:
- First, avoid baby names that are too complicated to speak or pronounce. This may cause some difficulty late in her life. If you insist on such Muslim baby names, ensure a suitable nickname that can substitute for the name is available.
- Girls want popular names associated with beautiful qualities, and Arabic names sound unique to the ears and have English meanings. Make sure you explore each character for such a texture.

Outlook
Searching for popular Muslim baby girl names should not be a complicated task. Given that the sources range from various countries and traditions such as Arabian and Persian origins, your choice as a parent may vary between traditional baby names from the old Arabic language, which has a modern spice to them, or some obscure yet popular baby names.
Today’s woman’s name holds and tells of great importance than it did in the old days, and it is the first insight of whom she will grow up to be.
Our Arabic baby names, girl names, or boy names of Arabic origin also indirectly instill our qualities.
While a name does have a degree of importance to it, it is highly valued in Islam since the Quran refers to us being summoned on Judgment Day by our name.
Therefore, choosing a name for your Muslim baby that will appeal to all is the number one priority.
