neutral Moroccan name

7 replies

Luisa Guest ·
We're expecting our first girl. I'm half Dutch, half Italian, but my husband is 100% Moroccan.
My husband really wants the baby to have a Moroccan name.
Honestly, I'm not really into Moroccan names, but I did find a few neutral ones like: Yara, Yanel, Elisa, Elif, Saja, Zahra, Saïda, Aisha, Farah, Jamilla and Soraya.
But I didn't get much further than that. I do like these names, but I don't really feel like "yes, that's the one" for our child.
Do you have any suggestions?

    My new neighbor girl is called Noor-Imane. I think that's really beautiful! But you have to choose something you both stand behind. Maybe use the Moroccan name as a middle name?

    If our baby had been a girl, she would have been named Ilana. It means "sunbeam" and I believe it's also an Islamic name! But I just think it's such a beautiful name.
