Thinking about the name
Cid
Arabic origin
“A bold, spare name derived from the Arabic 'al-qid' (lord or leader), most famously borne by El Cid, the legendary 11th-century Spanish knight and military leader. As a modern given name, Cid conveys strength, heroism, and cultural significance with minimalist elegance. It works equally well for any gender and carries an air of adventure and historical gravitas.”
