Names Haris Nabeel Hashim

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Fatwa.org.au
Can you please tell me the meaning of these names:
Muhammad Haris
Muhammad Nabeel
Muhammad Hashim

Are these proper Muslim names?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Muhammad means he who is praised. Haris ( حارث ) means good provider. Nabeel ( نبيل )  means noble, exalted. Hashim ( هاشم ) means crusher (of evil).  They are all proper Muslim names.

And Allah knows best.
