Arabic and Muslim Names

Tuesday, 13 July 2010 10:45 administrator

The majority of Emiratys have family names within one of a small set: Al (about 90% of all UAE), Bin (or about 5%). A UAE name consists of a family name, in almostevery case one syllable, plus a given name usually of two syllables. The family name comes first. A UAE woman does not take her husband's family name, but their children take their father's family name.
