Ehnef

A Quranic Name for Boys and Girls

Ehnef is variant of Ahnaf and has the exact same meaning and pronunciation (see below for full meaning). You can use either Ehnef or Ahnaf, both are correct and acceptable. If you like this variant more and you'd like to pronounce it the way it is spelled (different than the original name), this is perfectly acceptable. For more details please see the main entry at: Ahnaf.

Full Meaning of Ehnef

Ehnef is an indirect Quranic name for boys that means “club-footed” (one who walks on the back of their feet due to a genetic defect). It is derived from the H6-N-F Quranic root.

Updated April 10, 2019. Previously this page erroneously showed the meaning of Ehnef as “upright”. This has been corrected.
