It is not a requirement in Islam to have an English name that represents the religion. However, many Muslim parents choose names for their children that have positive meanings or are inspired by Islamic figures or concepts. It is ultimately up to you and your husband to decide which names you would like to give to your baby boy. It's important to discuss and find a name that both of you agree on while considering your respective cultural backgrounds and personal preferences.
