Dua Origin and Meaning

The name Dua is a girl's name meaning "love, prayer".

Dua is one of those names that has been popularized in English speaking countries by a single celebrity: British-Albanian model-singer Dua Lipa. It's simple, modern, appealing, and may find a wider audience thanks to its attractive namesake.

In Islam, du'a is a prayer in which Muslims ask for help or assistance from God and must be given with sincerity, patience, and good intentions. In Albanian, it translates to "I want" or "I love", and in Malay, Dua means "two". Well established before its celebrity appeal, Dua makes a meaningful choice.
