Means "servant of ALLAH" from Arabic عبد ('abd) "servant of" combined with الله (Allah). This was the name of the Prophet Muhammad's father. He died before his son's birth.
Derived from Arabic الإله (al-ilah) meaning "the deity". It is primarily used to refer to the Islamic God, though it was originally used by pre-Islamic Arabs, and is sometimes used by Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews.
