Aladdin Origin and Meaning

The name Aladdin is a boy's name of Arabic origin meaning "height of religion; excellent in faith".

We can't pretend that this name is not indelibly linked to the Disney's eponymous character, at least in the USA; but it's not a negative connotation and may appeal to you. Bosnian variation Aldin may be more wearable in the US, though.
