These two words are foreign and their meanings are not known in the Arabic language. It is not appropriate for a Muslim to name (their children) with them unless their meanings are known and it is confirmed that they do not contain anything that contradicts religion and morals. It is recommended to name children with good, well-known names, due to the influence names have on the named.
