Re: Khadijah / Khadija
in reply to a message by cassilda in carcosa
I love Khadijah, I also prefer it spelled Khadija. I assume English speakers would be familiar with the name just because it is so classic among Muslims.
I think a lot of the classic Arabic names are familiar for English speakers: Aisha, Fatima, Maryam. I also like Zainab, Humayra, Malika, Asiya. Alia is one of my favorites (but might get confusion with AH-lee-ah vs ah-LEE-ah, and same with Malika)
