Iman (model) (734 hits)



Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid (Somali: Iimaan Maxamed Cabdulmajiid, born Zara Mohamed Abdulmajid, 25 July 1955[2]), known mononymously as Iman, is a Somali–American model and actress. A muse of the designers Gianni Versace, Thierry Mugler, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, and Yves Saint Laurent, she is also noted for her philanthropic work. She was married to rock musician David Bowie from 1992 until his death in 2016.

Early life
Iman was born Zara Mohamed Abdulmajid (Somali: Zara Maxamed Cabdulmajiid) in Mogadishu, Somalia and raised as a Muslim. She was later renamed Iman, meaning "faith" in Arabic[3] at her grandfather's urging, who believed she would "prosper" with a masculine name.

Iman is not a masculine name in the Arabic language or the Islaamic process of named children at birth or whenever...

Yes, Iman is a beautiful name and description....

i.e. if someone called me Iman instead of my name..I would appreciate it and take it as a great compliment

..One of my daughters is named Iman..and Many of my friends in/from AfricaAsian Nations that have females name them.. Iman

I have never heard of a man or boy named Iman..
