Meaning of Ayan
Ayan (1)
Ayan (1) written in Arabic.
Ayan is a Quranic name for both boys and girls and means “time”, “era”, epoch”, “age”, literally meaning “[the time] when”. This name is not used by Arabs due to its unusual grammar. It is used by non-Arab Muslims who like the way the word sounds. It is mentioned in many places in the Quran:
They ask: “At what time is the Day of Judgment?” (Quran 51:12)
يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَاهَا قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ رَبِّي لَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَا إِلَّا هُوَ ثَقُلَتْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ لَا تَأْتِيكُمْ إِلَّا بَغْتَةً يَسْأَلُونَكَ كَأَنَّكَ حَفِيٌّ عَنْهَا قُلْ إِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ
They ask you about the Hour: when is its arrival? Say, “Its knowledge is only with my Lord. None will reveal its time except Him. It lays heavily upon the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except unexpectedly.” They ask you as if you are familiar with it. Say, “Its knowledge is only with Allah, but most of the people do not know.” (Quran 7:187)
وَالَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ لَا يَخْلُقُونَ شَيْئًا وَهُمْ يُخْلَقُونَ (20) أَمْوَاتٌ غَيْرُ أَحْيَاءٍ وَمَا يَشْعُرُونَ أَيَّانَ يُبْعَثُونَ (21)
And those they invoke other than Allah create nothing, and they [themselves] are created. They are, [in fact], dead, not alive, and they do not perceive the time when they will be resurrected. (Quran 16:20-21)
Ayan (2)
Ayan (2) written in Arabic.
Ayan (عَيَّان, transliteration: `ayyaan) is an Arabic name that means “unable”, “incapable”1. This is an an indirect Quranic name from the AIN-Y-Y root. Arabic names with negative meanings are somewhat common, and they are not forbidden for Muslims.
Ayan (3)
Ayan (3) written in Farsi.
Ayan, if pronounced [(A)fter] + [(YA)r(N)], is a Persian name that means “long night”2. This is a good meaning, therefore it is acceptable for Muslims to use this name.

Ayan and Ubair were to water bowls of prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him, he was drinking water in those bowls, narrated from some hadith
Abdussamad
Either you could take the name Ayyan starting with hamzah which would mean time, era, etc, or you can take the name ‘ayyaan starting with an ‘ain and that would mean one who has wide eyes, or one who is perceptive in studying and analyzing things. Hope this helps!

Ayyaan is a beautiful name.Allah(SWT) put so much emphasis on “time” and if you check critically, everything Allah(SWT) created on Earth and in the heavens has to do with time,the time we were born and the time we shall all go back to our creator…..I so much love the name and am gonna name my first child Ayyaan Mustapha.
Jazakalahu’khair.
