Sulayman

Meaning of Sulayman

Sulayman is an Arabic jewel meaning “man of peace,” the counterpart of the storied Solomon whose wisdom and sense of justice echo across scripture. Pronounced soo-LAY-mahn, it rolls off the tongue with a natural warmth that feels both regal and inviting. Though it sits just outside the top 800 names in the U.S.—with around thirty-plus babies each year—it’s quietly on the rise, its gentle ebb and flow over recent decades hinting at a growing love for names that marry rich heritage with modern hope. Choosing Sulayman is like giving a child a legacy-laden handshake with history and a wink at the future: an enduring promise of calm confidence, thoughtful leadership, and a story that’ll spark smiles at every playground introduction.
