Khadije
Khadije Origin and Meaning
Khadije is a feminine name representing a variant spelling of Khadijah (also written as Khadija). This important name in Islamic tradition was borne by the first wife of the Prophet Muhammad and the first person to convert to Islam. Derived from Arabic, it means 'premature child' or 'early baby,' though its associations with the historical Khadijah have given it connotations of faithfulness, wisdom, and strength. This particular spelling variant, Khadije, reflects regional pronunciation differences across the Muslim world. While most common in Muslim communities, the name has gained broader recognition globally. Khadije carries significant historical and religious importance while offering a beautiful sound and meaningful heritage, making it a choice that balances cultural depth with melodious appeal.
