[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I heard the name Zaid I would assume Muslim. My kid had 2 friends with that name in ES. Both Muslim. If I heard Noah I would assume Jewish. [/quote]

Agree.  Have never met a Christian Zaid/Zayd [/quote]

It's because you aren't Muslim or Arabic. It's an Arabic name and not an Islamic name. It also depends on the last name Noah has.. there are tons of Christian Noah's. In Arabic it's spelled Nuh [/quote]

Are you Muslim or Arab?  I’m Muslim, and I have never met a non-Muslim Zaid/Zayd, as I previously stated. [/quote]

If you have never met one, then it means none exist among the 450 million Arabs 🙄[/quote]

OP here. Our last name is very common, and most Americans will know it's most likely Muslim. We spell the first name Zaid and haven't had issues with people pronouncing it wrong. Sometimes our surname is pronounced Hasen. Zaid is rare in the US but seems to be an easy name for others to pronounce. It's similar to Zain/ Zane. I have grown to like Rhys and think we are going to go with that name.

Actually not that rare.  Just generally a Muslim name.  Zaid is not the traditional spelling. [/quote]
