Meaning

Arman, explained

Arman (آرمان) is a Persian name for boys. It means wish, hope.

Is Arman in the Quran?

No. Arman is not a word in the Quran. A name does not need to be in the Quran to be a good Muslim name: what matters is that its meaning is good. The Prophet ﷺ changed names with bad meanings and kept names with good ones.1

How to say and write Arman

Say it aar-MAAN. The capital letters show the stressed part. In English it is also spelled Armaan. In Arabic it is written with 5 letters, from right to left: آ alif madda + ر ra + م mim + ا alif + ن nun.

Choosing Arman

A Muslim name does not have to be Arabic. Scholars allow names from any language as long as the meaning is good and the name is not tied to another religion. Arman has a good meaning, so it is fine to use. With the father's name it becomes Arman bin (and the father's name): see what bin, bint and abu mean.
