Dawath is a rare modern given name drawn from Arabic daʿwat/daʿwah (دعوة), from the root d-ʿ-w “to call, invite, summon.” It conveys “invitation” or “summons,” and in Islamic usage often refers to the call to faith or outreach. Through Persian and Urdu it also carries the everyday sense of an “invitation to a meal; feast,” a nuance widely recognized in South Asia.

The name is typically unisex.
