Icram

The name Ikram (often transliterated as Icram) is derived from the Arabic root 'karama', which signifies honor, dignity, and generosity. It is a concept deeply embedded in Islamic culture and language, reflecting virtues highly valued in society. While the root is ancient, the use of Ikram as a personal name likely became more common with the spread of Islam and Arabic language.

It is used as both a male and female name in Arabic-speaking countries, though in some regions or specific transliterations, it might lean towards one gender. The meaning of honor and respect makes it a positive and aspirational name for a child.
