Reference Profile

Etymology

Related to a pre-Islamic Arabian deity name; notably part of the name Abd Manaf ibn Qusai, an ancestor of the Prophet Muhammad in his tribal lineage.

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.
