Question:
A listener sent a message saying, "Your brother Khalil Muhammad has three questions, and he hopes that Your Eminence, the Shaykh, will be gracious enough to answer them. His first question is: I have a daughter whom I named Huda, and I have heard some people say that the name Huda is not mentioned [in the sources]. What is your advice? Should I change the daughter's name?"
Answer:
I am not aware of any harm in that. I am not aware of any harm in this, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
