Scripts حسن, حسّان(Arabic) حسن(Persian, Urdu) ޙަސަން(Dhivehi)
Pronounced Pron. /ˈħa.san/(Arabic) /ħas.ˈsaːn/(Arabic)

Meaning & History

Most commonly this is a variant of the Arabic name حسن, which is typically transcribed Hasan.

Alternatively, this spelling can represent the distinct but related Arabic name حسّان (having a doubled middle consonant and a final long vowel) meaning "beautifier, improver". Hassan ibn Thabit was a 7th-century poet who was a companion of the Prophet Muhammad.
