Is Urooj Fatima an appropriate name for a girl?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Assalamo alaikum! I have been blessed with a daughter. I am looking for some names. One name came to my mind Urooj fatima. Urooj is male name. So this name Uroj fatima is suitable for a girl or not?

Answer

(Fatwa: 417/287/L=1431)

You can keep her name “Uroj Fatima”. However, you would better name her only Fatimah and drop Uroj. Fatima is the name of the beloved daughter of holy Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم).
