What is the ruling on naming with the name Eileen?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the name is specific to disbelievers, then it is not permissible to name a Muslim newborn with it. However, if it is not specific to them and there are those who use it in Muslim lands, then the default is that it is permissible to name with it.
