Origin of the name Abubakar
The Arabic name Abubakar has a structure typical of many names of this people. “Abu Bakr” is translated as “father of Bakr” and was originally used as a kunya, an additional second and very honorable name for a man. As a rule, the Arabic name consisted of the name given at birth, the father’s name, an indication of the place of origin and kunya – an indication of the son’s name. It was extremely important for the Arabs to have an heir, so after the boy left infancy, the father received this honorary addition to his name. A childless man could also receive this particular marten as a wish to have heirs.
“Bakr” is translated as “firstborn” or “different from others.”
The spread of the name Abubakar as a separate, unrelated name was radically influenced by the fact that this was the name of one of Muhammad’s companions and close friends. The names of friends of the Messenger of Allah are some of the most popular names among Muslims.
Abu Bakr al-Siddiq was the fourth to convert to Islam, accompanied the prophet everywhere, was his father-in-law and became the first Muslim caliph. This name is widespread among the Arabs, but is much less common among the Turkic peoples and Persians.
As a rule, such a name is given to a son by fairly religious Sunni parents, wanting the boy not only to be obedient to Allah, but also to achieve significant success in earthly life, like the famous namesake.
