Full Meaning of Eeman

Eeman is a Quranic name for boys that’s directly mentioned in the Quran. Eeman means “blessed” and “good fortune”, and literally means “on the right side”. In Arabic (and Islamic) culture the right side is associated with strength, blessings and good luck.

And when he came to it, he was called by a voice from a bush in a blessed spot, on the right side of the valley: ‘O Moses, I am God, Lord of the Universe.’ (Quran 28:30)

In Eeman the stress is on the first part of the word, Ay, and the second part, man, is said quickly and with a short “a”, which is read like the “u” in humble. Don’t say Aymaan, because that changes the word to mean oaths.
