ʻAbd al-Majīd (ALA-LC romanization of Arabic: عبد المجيد, Persian: عبدالمجید), also spelled as Abd ul Majid, Abd ul-Majid, Abd ol Majid, Abd ol-Majid, and Abdolmajid, is a Muslim male given name and, in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words ʻabd and al-Majīd, one of the names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names.[1][2] It means "servant of the All-glorious". It is rendered in Turkish as Abdülmecid.
There is a distinct but closely related name, ʻAbd al-Mājid (Arabic: عبد الماجد), with a similar meaning, formed on the Qur'anic name al-Mājid. Some of the names below are instance of the latter one.
