Hussin is Arabic, Islamic in Origin.

Hussin is a widely used spelling variant of the Arabic name Husayn (also Hussein/Hussain), the affectionate diminutive of Hasan, from the root H-S-N "good, beautiful." It therefore carries the sense "little handsome one" or "well-favored." The -in spelling with a single i is especially seen in Malay/Indonesian usage and among Southeast Asian Muslim communities, where Hussin/Husin also appears as a family name through patronymic adoption.

Usage of the name spread early across the Islamic world because of al-Husayn ibn Ali, the Prophet Muhammad's grandson, whose death at Karbala (680 CE) made the name a symbol of piety and steadfastness. Common regional forms include Husayn, Husain, Hussein, Hussain, Hossain (Bengali), Hossein/Hosein (Persian), Husein (Bosnian), Houssein (French transliteration), Hüseyin (Turkish), and Husin (Malay/Indonesian). Related names are Hasan and the compound devotional form Hasnain. Today Hussin feels traditional yet global, resonant in Arabic, Persian, Turkish, South Asian, and Southeast Asian contexts.
