can you please tell me name Adyan is valid name? if so, what does it mean? thanks

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

The meaning of Adyan is “one who is most religious.” It is permissible to keep the name Adyan.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
