Is the name "Umair" suitable, and what does it mean? Does it signify a short life, as has been said? If it is not suitable, what are the suggested names that indicate good health and a long life?

The name "Umair" is a well-known and good Arabic name. It is a diminutive of "Umar" or "Amr," and it is derived from "frequent performance of Umrah" or "residency and permanence." Many Companions were named Umair. The diminutive form of the name does not indicate a short life; rather, it signifies optimism for a long life. The best and most beloved names to Allah are "Abdullah" and "Abdul Rahman," and any name that expresses servitude to Allah. Then come the names of the Prophets, the best of which is "Muhammad." There is no relationship between a name and one's age or health, but it is permissible to be optimistic about a good name. More importantly, children should be raised with a sound Islamic upbringing.
