History & Origin

Najeh is an Arabic given name, a form of Najih built on the root n-j-h, 'to succeed.' It means 'successful' or 'victorious' and is common in North Africa and the wider Arabic-speaking world. It reached American records chiefly through Arabic-speaking and Muslim families.

Najeh was never common in the United States, given to only about sixteen boys a year at its peak around 2007. A boy named Najeh then is a teenager or young adult today.
