Zidan or Zaydan (which are one and the same name) is a Quranic name for boys that means increase,
growth and progress. It is a synonym of Zaid, also a Quranic name. Zidan is not directly mentioned
in the Quran but its root is Z-Y-D which is used a lot in the Quran. Zidane comes from the Arabic name,
Zeid. Zeid means "abundance," "growth," or "one who progresses and makes other people progress."
In Arabic, it is very common for people to talk about objects in plural, instead of in singular. We do this to
add more emphasis to our words. For example, "Marhaba" means hi, but often times, people will say
"marhab-tayn" which means "two hi's." So thisi kind of means that you deserve more than one "hi." You
deserve two hi's. Or "Ahla" means welcome, but people will say "Ah-layn" which means "two welcomes."
So you are more than welcome.
Zidane means two of Zeid. Also it is not a Christian or a Muslim name. It is simply just an Arabic name.
