Khadijah is a feminine name of Arabic origin with deep historical and religious significance in Islamic tradition. It honors Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, the first wife of the Prophet Muhammad and the first person to convert to Islam. The name means 'premature child' or 'early baby' in Arabic, though its religious and historical associations far outweigh this literal meaning. Khadijah represents strength, wisdom, and faithfulness in Islamic culture, as its namesake was known for her business acumen, independence, and unwavering support of her husband. The name gained popularity in Western countries during the late 20th century as Muslim communities grew and as non-Muslim parents became more open to names from diverse cultural traditions. Various spelling variations exist, including Kadijah, Khadeejah, and Khadija.
