    Jalaluddin:
    ‎جلال Jalal – translates as “brilliance, greatness, superiority, renown, majesty (variant of King)” in Arabic, Urdu, and Farci
    ‎الدین محمد ed-Din (written al-Din) means “the religion” or “the faith”. It is used as a suffix of ending of indirect Quranic names for a boy.
    ‎الدین محمد – Jalal-ed-Din, therefore, is an indirect Quranic boy’s name, composed of two names mentioned in the Holy Qur’an.
    ‎جلال‌الدین محمد رومی Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī is the name of a famous Afghani poet, whose family moved to Rum, giving him the name RUMI.
    Jalal-ed-Din would be an auspicious name for a boy!
