Reply:My name is Samir, it's known to most people but you hardly see it, and I think it's a new name for men,
Reply:I think the names I heard most often were Khalid and Fatima. My husband has a less common name, Rabii. He tells me the spelling is very close to the word for spring and he was born in the spring which is what gave his parents the idea for it.
