Kunya (Arabic)
(重定向自Abul)
A kunya (Arabic:كنية, kunyah) is a teknonym in Arabic names, the name of an adult derived from his or her eldest child.
A kunya is expressed by the use of abū or umm in a genitive construction, i.e. "father of" or "mother of" as an honorific in place of or alongside given names in the Arab world and the Islamic world more generally.
