What is the meaning of the name Din ?

The baby name Din is a Male name , 1 syllables long and is pronounced /diːn/ (deen).

Din is Arabic, English, Hebrew in Origin.

Din has layered roots in both Arabic and Hebrew. In Arabic, dīn (دين) means “religion, faith, judgment,” long used as an honorific element in compound names - Nur al-Din, Salah al-Din, Fakhr al-Din - borne by medieval scholars and rulers; as a standalone given name it appears in modern Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Turkish, Malay, and Indonesian contexts. In Hebrew, Din (דין) means “law, judgment,” used as a modern given name and longstanding surname.

Meanings cluster around moral order: faith, religion, justice, verdict. Common spellings include Din and Deen; regional forms add connective particles al-/ud-/ad-Din in compounds. Diminutive or clipped uses are frequent: Malay and Indonesian speakers often shorten names ending in -din to Din, and in Bosnian usage Din can be a pet form of Edin or Aldin. Related variants and compounds include Nurdin/Nuruddin, Zainuddin, Shamsuddin, Nasruddin, and Tajuddin.
