Fayiz

Fayiz is a masculine given name of Arabic origin that is also used as a surname in some communities. It is widely found across the Muslim world and in diaspora populations. The name carries associations with abundance, blessings, and generosity, though the exact nuance can vary by language and cultural context. Fayiz is one of several transliterations from Arabic into the Latin alphabet; common variants include Faiz, Fayez, Faiyaz, and Fayyiz.

Usage of the name spans many Arabic-speaking countries as well as South and Southeast Asian communities, including Pakistan, India, and Indonesia, and it is present among Muslim populations in Europe and North America. It is generally given to boys, and it may appear in compound names that incorporate Fayiz. Differences in spelling in English-language sources reflect transliteration choices rather than distinct names.

In onomastic terms, Fayiz is part of a broader class of Arabic-derived names that evoke positive qualities such as blessing, abundance, and success. The name may appear in historical, religious, or modern contexts across diverse cultures where Arabic-derived given names are common.
