An Arabic name part is a part of a traditional Arabic name, which is composed of an individual's given name, patronymic, and family name. The two most common parts of an Arabic name are 'Ibn' and 'BIN', which both mean 'son of'. Ibn is an abbreviation of the phrase 'Ibn al-', while BIN is an abbreviation of the phrase 'BIN abi'. Both phrases are used to indicate that the individual is the son of someone else, usually the father.
