Assalamu alaikum. Could you please suggest some good names starting with 'Al' for both boy & girl; like Al-farah, Al-fanan? Is it possible to add 'Al' at starting of all names; names like liyana etc?

Al- cannot be used before all names. The names that can have al- are actually rare. Some names that allow it are al-Hasan, al-Hussein, al-Waleed, al-Qasim, al-Amjad, al-Muthannaa, al-Azz, al-Mu'tasim Billah. For girls there are names like al-Zahraa, al-Shaimaa, al-Mahaa, al-Jood, al-Jaazi.
