Meaning & Story

From the Arabic and Persian Iman meaning faith or belief — a name with deep spiritual significance across Islamic culture, and also associated with the iconic supermodel.

Iman is a name of genuine beauty and depth. In Arabic, it means faith — one of the central virtues in Islamic tradition — and it carries that quiet, grounded strength in every syllable. The name gained widespread recognition in Western culture through the legendary Somali-American supermodel and entrepreneur Iman, whose single-name presence is one of the most iconic in fashion history. For a pet, it is a name that suits a dog of real presence: beautiful, composed, and completely confident in herself.
