Siyad

Siyad is likely derived from the Arabic word sayaad meaning "hunter", "gunner", or "fisherman", making this an occupational Arabic name, equivalent to the popular, outdoorsy English choices, like Hunter, Fisher, and Sawyer. Alternatively, some sources suggest Siyad is a variation of Siad or Sayyid meaning "lord, master, chief", of Sa'd, Suad, and Saad, meaning "blessed, fortunate".

Pronounced see-YAHD.
