Khulud (also transliterated Kholoud or Khulood) is an Arabic feminine given name that means "infinite, endless" or "immortality." It derives from the Arabic root خلد (khalada), which conveys the concept of lasting forever or being eternal. The name reflects a deep cultural and religious value placed on endurance and permanence.
Cultural Significance
In Islamic tradition, the concept of khulud (eternity) is associated with the afterlife in paradise. The name is also linked to the Egyptian film Khulood (1948), a romance written, directed, and starring Ezz El-Dine Zulficar, with Faten Hamama and Kamal al-Shennawi. In the film, the title symbolically contrasts earthly love with the themes of immortality. As a given name, Khulud is used across the Arab world, with the variant Kholoud being equally common.
