Question
Could you pleae advise the "Aezza" girl name is valid islmaic and quarnic name(grammatically and literally). We finlise this name for our baby girl nut its not very common and not heard before so would like to confirm with you.
My reserach says Aezza is plural of Aziz . Its used twice in Quran in 5:54 and 27:34 and it means powerfull, nobel and mighty ones.
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your understanding of the meaning of the name Aizza is correct. Aizza is the plural of Aziz. However, you may use the name Aizza or you may use the name Aziza[1].
