Fuad

Fuad (Arabic: ''fū’ād, fou’ād'') (also spelled Fouad, Foud, Fuaad or Foad) is a masculine Arabic given name, meaning "heart"—the beating circulating heart, the concept of "mind and spirit".

Its root word is the Arabic verb ''fa’ada'' (Arabic: ), meaning "burning or a flame", and ''lahmun fa'eed'', meaning a "roasted meat on a fire". It is used to describe a "heart that is inflamed with emotion". Therefore, it may share similarities with another Arabic verb ''fada’'' () meaning "to sacrifice"—"to sacrifice, give, risk oneself for (something/cause)".

It was borne by two different kings of Egypt.

Originally an Arabic given name, it became widespread throughout the Middle East during the 9th and 12th centuries. Provided by Wikipedia
