Amal 1

Since I am not part of a Middle Eastern / North African / South Asian culture, using explicitly Arabic or Persian names would be a little weird for me, sort of like cultural appropriation. But there are a few names of this category that I think are really great: Faris, Hassan, Ilyas, Fairuza, Shahrazad... and Amal. The name Amal is simple, but unforgettable.

While using Amal by itself would be strange, I do think it could work as a nickname for Amalia.

Simple and elegant on a girl.
