Mashal is a versatile and harmonious name suitable for both boys and girls. The literal meaning, 'Torch, light', evokes imagery of nature and radiance, suggesting a personality full of life and positivity.

In Arabic culture, names are more than labels; they are prayers. Mashal is widely respected for its positive connotations. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Mashal comes from the Arabic root sh-'-l, meaning “to light” or kindle. It is translated as “torch.”
