The Semitic root ''B-R-K'' has the original meaning of "to kneel down", with a secondary meaning "to bless". In Islamic mysticism, ''Barakah'' ((アラビア語:بركة )) is a concept of spiritual presence or revelation. The cognate Hebrew term is ''Berakhah'' (בְּרָכָה) "benediction, blessing". Baruch () is a Biblical Hebrew given name, most notably the name of Baruch ben Neriah, aide to the prophet Jeremiah. The Arabic masculine given name Mubarak is the Arabic stem III passive participle, ' (), meaning "blessed (one)". The given name Barack of US president Barack Obama〔Obama is named after his Kenyan father, Barack Obama, Sr. (b. 1936), a member of the Luo ethnic group, whose father, Onyango Obama, had converted to Islam as an adult.〕 is derived from the same root.

However, it appears that the variant has a tradition as a masculine given name in Islamic parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「B-R-K」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
