This book considers how names transform phonetically and semantically as they migrate between languages. It focuses on the indigenization of Persian and Arabic names in Bengali culture, the impact of political and social changes in Bangladesh on naming practices, and shared naming aspects in Muslim communities. Key themes include the integration of Persian and Arabic words into Bengali naming conventions and the evolution of these names across cultural and linguistic boundaries. Ultimately, it offers insights into the linguistic and cultural  exchanges  that  shape identities and traditions.
