Eternal, everlasting, or immortal
Khaalid is an Arabic name derived from the root word 'kh-l-d', which signifies eternity or staying in one place forever. It is a deeply significant name in Islamic history, most notably associated with the legendary military commander Khalid ibn al-Walid. The double 'a' spelling is a common transliteration variant used to emphasize the long vowel sound in the original Arabic.
