Keeping the names of Ambiyaa, Sahaaba and the pious of the past

Q: Can I name my baby boy as Alyan uddin? Does it makes a meaningful name?

A: We have not come across this name. It is best that you keep the names of the Ambiyaa, Sahaaba and the pious of the past.

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