Meaning of the name 'Dujana'

Question

Can I name my baby boy Only Dujana, kindly answer my question. And also meaning of the name.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

We have already issued Fataawa 82724 and 87262 clarifying the forbidden and disliked names; so please refer to them.

Therefore, we do not see any religious impediment for naming the boy with the name Dujana because among the meanings of ‘Dajan’ in Arabic language is the shadow of clouds in a rainy day, and this meaning and other meanings which the scholars  may  Allaah  have  mercy  upon  them stated for this word, do not include anything which prohibits being named with this name.

Allaah Knows best.
