Database of Arabic Names

Web-based frequency statistics

Based on over 25 million source names

Validated against web and corpora

Proofread by native Arab editors

Comprehensive coverage (over 6.4 million variants)

Fully vocalized Arabic extension

Overview

CJKI’s Database of Arabic Names (DAN) covers over 6.5 million entries and consists of Arabic personal names — both given names and surnames — and name variants mapped to the original Arabic script with a large variety of supplementary information. Arabic names as used here refers to names of ethnic Arabs written in either Arabic or romanized script.

Based on authoritative linguistic resources, our Database of Arabic Names was compiled by a team of native Arabic-speaking editors that have done extensive proofreading and expansion. It includes numerous orthographic variants and other attributes such as web frequency, name type codes indicating whether the name is a first or last name, normalized forms, and gender codes.

Our DAN dataset plays an important role in helping software developers, especially of security applications related to anti-money laundering and terror watchlists, as well as natural language processing tools, enhance their technology by enabling named entity recognition and extraction, machine translation, variant normalization, and information retrieval of Arabic names.

Unique Features

In addition to comprehensive coverage of Arabic names, DAN offers such unique features as the vocalization of each name, support for various romanization systems, and the validation of all romanized variants based on their frequency of occurrence.

The database contains a web frequency statistic for each of the millions of romanized variants. Augmenting DAN with frequency data from relevant lexical resources increases the effectiveness with which it can be used to distinguish Arabic given names and surnames from non-names.

DAN also has both vocalized and unvocalized versions of the Arabic names, and sometimes multiple vocalizations for the same name.
