Origin and meaning of Zain
Zain is an Arabic name meaning 'beauty, grace, adornment': the bearer is, poetically, 'that which beautifies'. It appears in the honorific Zayn al-'Abidin, 'adornment of the devout'. It is widespread throughout the Muslim world and has become familiar in the West too, helped by the spelling Zayn. In some areas it is occasionally used for girls, but it remains mainly a boy's name.
