Favorite Baby names?!

Salam! What are your favorite baby names?!!

With the baby on the way and all I've been looking at names/meanings but I only like a few :/!
I want something different that not a lot of people have! Also I like cute nicknames example, for Ali its Alooshy, Mariam (Mariuma), Fatima (Fatuma,Fufu), Hassan (Soona)! HELP?


So far this is what I have chosen for both a girl and a littlee boy:
*Amal -Hope inspiration
-Daania :means near/close in proximity. It is mentioned in the Qur'an and is used in the description of heaven, where the fruit hangs down close to the dwellers of heaven. **cute**
*Leena- A devoted one
-Gazelle/Giselle - A deer
*Salima -Safe
-Lamia - Shine


Boys**
Adyan- A nabee was named by this name
Abdul Rahman: Servant of the merciful one, Servant of the Beneficent
Abdullah -Servant of Allah
-Noah (Nuh)- A nabee
-Ahad The one
Omar -Companion Omar ibn Khattab

-Not sure why almost all the names start with A* haha. Anywho my top FAVORITE
boy name is Nuh (Noah) after the Nabee :) Absolutely in love with it,.

Prego & Ramadan

Assalamu`Alaikam!!!

Ramadan starts very soon!! Woo hoo the only thing is I highly doubt i'll be fasting! Due to being preggo!!!!! (Al-Hamdulilah)! The hubby has been making sure whenever I leave the house to grab a water bottle! The bathroom has become my bestfriend and worst enemy o_O especially during the night. I swear its clock work I wake up every two hours (AHHHH). Oh the joys of being pregnant hehe. Hm on to a boring topic I'm still trying to figure out a major. I like business however I've been advised not to go into that (stupid recession). Maybe medical evennn thoughh i dislike blood. See my dilemma?! haha inshAllah I'll figure it out soonn enough. Okiedokie that's my short posting for now!

RAMADAN KAREEM everyone :) :) :)
