The answer

It is not permissible to name a child "Ghurur" (غرور) because its meaning is 'vanity' or 'conceit', which is blameworthy. As for the names "Hams" (همس) and "Ihsaas" (إحساس), there is no objection to naming with them due to their good meanings. However, the name "Rimas" (ريماس) should not be used because it is one of the foreign names whose meaning is unknown, and it might have a meaning that contradicts Islamic law or morals.
