I'd love your opinion on the name Nisem for a boy. We're considering it for our son, but I was wondering what others think of it.

    Unique! Takes some getting used to. I guess I can appreciate it.

    My association is that it's an Arabic name. No idea if that's really the case, and of course it's not negative at all (unless you don't want it to be). I don't think it sounds wrong.

    I also associate it with an Arabic name. No problem at all. I personally wouldn't choose that either without a foreign partner, but everyone should know what works for them, and I don't know your background. So just go with what you find beautiful.

    Not the most beautiful, lovely name.

    I sometimes work behind the bar at a football club, where there are 2 guys with, I think, a Turkish background named Nisem. I think the name is fine, wouldn't choose it myself, but don't find it a horrible name or anything.

    Thank you for the positive and honest responses
    My husband is of Arab descent, so that association isn't an issue here.
    Thanks everyone, it's going to be Nisem.
