Assalamu Alaikum
Inshallah we are expecting our second child. If we are blessed with daughter, we want to name her Afiyah Fatima and if with son., Mohammed Waqiduddin.
I want to know about above mentioned names. What is arabic meaning of Afiyah and Waqid. Is these names have any connection with Sahabis of RasulAllah Sallalaho alai wassallam. We want give name to our children on pious companions.
Who was Waqid Ibn-e-Abdullah. Was he Sahabi of RasulAllah Sallalaho alai wassallam.
Is AFIYAH FATIMA and MOHAMMED WAQIDUDDIN appropriate names?
Hadith on Names: The most beloved names to Allah are Abdullah and Abdur Rahman
Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The most beloved names to Allah the Exalted are Abdullah, the servant of Allah, and Abdur Rahman, the servant of the Merciful.”

Sahih (authentic)
عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَحَبُّ الأَسْمَاءِ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ

This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
