The name Iqbal is a classic masculine title rooted in Arabic tradition. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Prosperity', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

While popular in Arabic regions, Iqbal has a modern appeal that transcends borders. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Iqbal comes from the Arabic root q-b-l, meaning “to turn toward” or approach. It is translated as “prosperity,” the sense of fortune turning favourably.
