Reference Profile

Etymology

From the Arabic root ูˆ-ู„-ุฏ (w-l-d, 'to be born'). Mawloud means 'newborn' - related to mawlid, the commemoration of the Prophet Muhammad's birth.

Notable Historical Usage

Arabic builds its vocabulary on consonantal roots, usually of three letters, poured into fixed patterns: one root yields the verb, the doer, the thing done and the place it happens. Names are drawn straight from that system, which is why a single root can stand behind a whole family of related names that look and sound like kin.
