Etymology, origin and meaning of name Ali
Ali is a name considered very “strong” by Arabs. When we see that the etymology “al ilah” which means “God” comes from Arabic, we are less surprised. We would immediately be ready to give the Arab origin to the first name Ali if there was not a similarity of the first name in the Germanic tradition. Indeed, some historians maintain that Ali derives his etymology from “Adal” which means “noble” in German. Thus, for some, Ali would designate a superior being and for others, Ali is a noble. Anyway, it is retained that the character Ali has a beautiful destiny. Based on the principle that a person from the upper sphere of society is necessarily a noble, the two interpretations come together.
