The name al-Majid and naming someone 'Abd al-Majid

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is al-Majid one of the names of Allah the Exalted? And is it permissible to name someone 'Abd al-Majid?

Answer:
I have nothing on this except that it is mentioned in some reports that He is generous and al-Majid. This is a matter of description, not a matter of naming.
