Meaning of Zayd
Zayd means growth, abundance, one who makes progress. It is the name of Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam)’s adopted son. It is mentioned once in the Quran. Many of the Prophet’s companions were named Zayd and for this reason it is a popular name among Muslims.
When you [Prophet] said to the man who had been favored by God and by you, ‘Keep your wife and be mindful of God,’ you hid in your heart what God would later reveal: you were afraid of people, but it is more fitting that you fear God. When Zayd no longer wanted her, We gave her to you in marriage so that there might be no fault in believers marrying the wives of their adopted sons after they no longer wanted them. God’s command must be carried out. {33:37}

Alhamdulillah. My Second son’s name is Muhammad Zaid. I was looking for Unique sahabah name in that this name was very special with respect to hadhidh and quran as mentioned below.
He is the only sahabah name mentioned in Quran (22nd Juz, in Surah Ahzab) once other than Muhammad name.
He is an adopted son of Muhammad
And he is 3rd person who embrace Islam (1st Kathija rali, Ali rali)
