Islamic naming guidance

  • Permissible

Draft: not yet reviewed by a scholar. This is not a fatwa.

Good meaning, nothing against it in the sources

Not the idol Na'ila who is paired with Isaf: the woman's name was borne by Na'ila bint al-Furafisa, a wife of the caliph Uthman, and an IslamWeb fatwa (in French) sees no objection to giving it to a girl.

Confidence: medium
