Choosing a Name for My Daughter: Anabiya or Khadijah?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My question is regarding my daughter. She is currently 5 weeks old. When she was not born I decided to name her Khadijah but when she was born I changed her name to Anabiya. Since she has born till now she has something going on. First she had gas and when we changed her milk she was fine after that she got younger infection. My question is that weather this is due to the fact that first her name since when she was not born our intention was a different name but after she was born we changed it. She also cries a lot can you please tell me a Surat or dua that I can read every time she cries? Can you respond to me as soon as possible as if I should change her name to Khadijah or leave it to Anabiya?

Bismillaah

A: We advise that you refer to an experienced child specialist in this regard.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
