Abdol-Aziz has maintained its appeal as a masculine name in modern times while preserving its akkadian (assyrian) roots. Today, parents are drawn to its meaningful essence of "This name means “servant of the powerful, Servant of the dear one" and its cultural richness. This name bridges traditional heritage with contemporary naming trends.
This name means “servant of the powerful, Servant of the dear one.” The name derives from the Arabic “‘azza > ʿAzīz,” meaning “strong, powerful,” but the adjective has acquired a more generic meaning of “excellent, precious, dear, valuable, glorious, holy, powerful, magnificent.” Azīz is one of the 99 names of God in the Qur’an, which give rise to the Muslim Theophoric names. Aziz is a common masculine given name, especially in the Muslim world. Still, it has also continued to be used since Pre Islamic and Pre-Arab times by indigenous non-Muslim peoples in the Middle East.
