Ahmadullah
Meaning of Ahmadullah
Ahmadullah is a distinguished male name of Arabic origin, meaning "Servant of the Most Praised" or "Servant of Allah." The name is deeply rooted in Islamic tradition, combining "Ahmad," an epithet of the Prophet Muhammad meaning "most praised," with "Allah," the Arabic word for God. Pronounced ah-mah-DOO-lah (/ʔaħ.mæ.duː.ˈl.la/), Ahmadullah carries a profound spiritual significance and is often chosen to reflect devotion and reverence. While it remains relatively rare in the United States, with only six occurrences in 2023 ranking at 10,779 and five occurrences in 2022 ranking at 12,313, it continues to be a meaningful choice for families seeking a name that embodies both faith and cultural heritage. A common variation of this name is Ahmad, which simplifies yet retains its essential praise-related connotation.
