Graceful and timeless, the name Hayat is a beautiful choice for a baby girl. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Life', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

Pronounced as Hayat, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Hayat comes from the Arabic root h-y-y, meaning “to live.” It is translated as “life,” closely related to Al-Hayy (The Ever-Living), one of the ninety-nine names of Allah.
