Jamaal

jamaal

“Jamaal” is a male name, and an Arabic word that means “beauty”, like I had explained it before in the entry for the name “Jamila/Jameela“.
The male form of “beautiful/handsome” is “Jamil/Jameel”.

Pay attention not to write “Jamaal” as “Jamal”, or it will mean a “camel” in Arabic.

    Thank you so much. That looks really cool. When someone wrote my name for me before and gave me a copy of it, people would laugh because it looked like “J Lo”. It must have been written like “Jamal” by mistake. HaHa….

    J-Lo in Arabic is not totally like “Jamal”, but it might look like it for people who are not familiar with the Arabic script.

    Glad you liked it! :)
