Keeping the name "Esa"

Q: We waited four years to have this baby through treatment. We found out we are having a boy. We have the following names. We want a mufti to choose the name from this list:

Adam

Ziyad

Rayyan

Esa

A: If it is a boy, you may keep the name Esa.

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