I want to name my baby Isis

Isis is an ancient Egyptian goddess of the moon, fertility, healing and magic. She is known as the essence of femininity and is exalted in her role as mother and wife. The regal name Isis also means “woman of the throne,” and thousands of women and girls in Egypt and around the world claim this name as their own.”
 
beautiful name, you should also name your son Osama.
Why? I’m talking about the Egyptian name not the terror group.

I would have named them ancient Somali names, I think there's a sticky thread about Somali boys and girls names.

You may think the name is nice and catchy but that kid will grow up hating his parents , so be considerate because this is definitely a life alternating decision.

Magac fiican u bixii si u horumar u gaaro , hadii kale noloshiisa adkaanaysa , ka fikir , ileen waa nafsadiisa.

and I’m talking about the Arab name Osama. What’s wrong with that?

How can you say there’s something wrong with naming your child Hitler or Osama but nothing wrong with naming your child Isis. In any case no one cares about your intention and will automatically focus on its negative reference. It seems to me you just want to name your daughter isis for attention. Because there’s nothing special about that name to you, you just happened to choose the one name that is also the name of an infamous terrorist organization, right…

i think with my heart
I’ve anyways been interested in the ancient Egyptians, and the connection to Somalis and Somalia. I’ve always loved the meaning and power of the name Isis. However, in 2014 the terrorists high jacked this beautiful name. Even so I’m still in love with it and considering calling my daughter this name. Even as a teen I anyways loved this name. I’m bummed out about it but I’m not going to let them high Jack the name. It’s regal and feminine and powerful.
Do you think it’s going to cause issues?

My friend was called Isis... everyone used to adore her name till...... :francis:

Is this enough of a reason. Might as well call her brother Qaeda and Boko.

Naming your kid after a polytheistic diety is awkward if you're a Muslim, don't you think?

I like the ancient Africa history thing and also I’m a numbers person and have always loved the number 4, four letters, number 4 has so much meaning, hence this name being the one for me from the beginning. I am really bummed out on its current association. How can such an ancient name be erased like that. Can it be revived? Will
It forever die with the damn terrorists or will it come back to it’s original glory?
 
But for real, there are people who call their names as ISIS



it’s genuinely lovely name that has been
Chosen by parents for thousands of years.
And yes many people from all
Over the world from white to black have names their kids that name and im sure there are still young girls with the name.
