The correct meaning of Ahyan is the one mentioned on our site here: Ahyan

 The meaning of "gift from God" is incorrect and comes from a list on the SearchTruth site that contains many incorrect meanings, and many other Islamic baby name sites have unfortunately copied the information from it without verifying its correctness.
