Answer 2

Najee is Arabic. It is a classic male Arabic name (female Najia) , diffused all over Islamic countries and means "safe" or 'Benefical, useful" depending of what Arabic name Najee is the romanization. If ee is pronounced quite long, it is more probably  "benefical" . If short (like Naji) means most probably "Safe"
