Ziyad is a boy’s name of Arabic origin. The title is an indirectly Quranic name as a variation of Zayd, which means “growth” and “progress.” Zayd comes from the verb zada, meaning “to increase.” This little boy is sure to grow up in the blink of an eye, and giving him a name that connects him to his culture means Ziyad can embrace it wherever in the world he finds himself.
