Can my infant daughter be named "Tahrim"?
A father should choose a beautiful name for his son, both in its pronunciation and meaning. It is disliked to name with names that carry meanings indicating sin and disobedience, as well as with names of chapters (surahs) of the Holy Qur'an. This includes the name "Tahrim" (Prohibition). Therefore, it seems that naming a girl with it is disliked. At the very least, it falls under the category of ambiguous matters (mutashabihat) that should be avoided, in addition to it being an unusual name that might cause embarrassment to the girl.
