Let’s talk about the best Arabic boy names! While many of these are going to sound less mainstream than the Arabic girl names, there are still a lot of great options here that will be easy to pronounce and spell.
Personally, I love how many Middle-Eastern names use X and Z for the first letter. Not only do I love those two letters, but names with them are just vastly underused!
Many Arabic names have been super popular all over the world for many years. In fact, you may be surprised to learn that names like Xavier and Zayn are both Arabic names!
I also love how Arabic boy names are similar to Persian boy names. Sometimes, I wish I had picked baby names that used these letters, because they just up the cool factor and make them really unique.
Some of my all-time favorite names are Arabic names, so it’s only fitting to write an entire post with my favorite Arabic boy names!
