Before I was born, my grandfather wanted my name to be Saddam because he liked the personality of the late President Saddam Hussein, but my mother refused the name, so my grandfather decided that my name, Tariq Aziz, should be a combination of two names because he also admires the late Iraqi Foreign Minister Tariq Aziz My name was registered in the civil registry. Aziz’s name was not registered, so my name remains Tariq
Tariq, meaning “the morning star”, and into the agentive form طارق, (ṭāriq), meaning “the morning star”
Nice name with beautiful meaning.
A great story Tariq
