ramzi

name

1. A male given name from Arabic.

   “Abdul Basit’s life as one of America’s most-wanted men came to an end almost as suddenly as it began. His alleged co-conspirators in the World Trade Center bombing had implicated “Ramzi Yousef” when they were arrested, and the F.B.I. had on several occasions laid elaborate plans to capture him in Pakistan, but each time he had been alerted and had disappeared, either into Karachi’s un derground or across the border into Afghanistan.”

   “The attacks were carried out by a terrorist group which included Ramzi Yousef, who in 1998 received two life sentences plus 240 years for his part in the bombings, as well as a number of other attacks or planned attacks including a plot to assassinate Pope John Paul II.”

2. A surname from Arabic.
