Answer 3

"The baby name should be meaningful as well. 'You will be called by your name on the day of judgment' this is another reason why it is important to chose a baby name with good meaning."

please visit the site with a lot easy to search either by name or meaning as well

if you want to search by meaning write down e.g 'light' and select 'by meaning' and then any gender or male gender(as per your requirement). you will surely get one good name :)

Answer 4

I t'up u yaya... =)

Answer 5

Obviously cannot.. Your can retain your own sir-name on request to the Islamic Registrar.

Names for example like : Hishamuddin Tan bin Abdullah for chinese converts.

Answer 6

same name yes .. same ic no .. so what i suggest is if u want to keep your old ic .. report loss before u convert .. then make a new ic after u convert . then u get to keep both ic .. ")

Answer 7

i'm afraid the body snatching incident will happen again, (because the person who converted to Islam neglected the important thing) so better change it to new i.c. (esp. the Religion status)

answering to your Q, :

same name : can

same ic: cannot

wow...got extremist here..thanks for the cute t/d.

Answer 8

You can use the same name and same old I.C.

But problem will arise later when they had to bury you according to what religion (if you're single and just few people knew you're convert) becoz no one can prove you are muslim.

I suggest you kept your old name on the new I.C...only change the religion status. You dont have to change your name. But if you like a muslim name, you can have one for yourself and it is not necessary to put it in I.C.

Answer 10

Answer 11

yeh report and say your old IC lost, then do new one with your muslim name, then puasa time use your old IC then go makan kaw-kaw (then pretend like tak larat nak kerja)  then hari raya time use your new IC and go claim all your duit raya ! whoa ! Oh yeh 1 more if you want to buy house or car, use your new IC can get discount ! 100% loan lulus ! Be wise ! Make use of your new privilege...

About your name, its better if you keep it cause it was given to you by your loving parents. Think wisely!
