Boy

Meaning & Origin

Quranic name of the prophet known in English as Abraham

More About Ibrahim

Ibrahim is the name used in the Quran for Abraham. Quran 19:41 describes him as truthful and a prophet. This identifies the name and its bearer; it does not establish a literal Arabic translation.

Islamic Naming Context

Ibrahim is explicitly named as a prophet in Quran 19:41. The previously listed father-of-a-multitude etymology needs a separate historical-language source and is not presented here as an Arabic meaning.

Some details need further verification. Confirm the intended spelling and meaning before choosing this name.
