Sufi Vad efternamn betyder
Muslim (mainly Iran and Bangladesh): from the Persian personal name Sūfī based on the adjective sūfī ‘wise’ a derivative of sūf ‘wisdom’. Somali: from a Somali Muslim personal name from Arabic ṣūfiyy literally ‘man of wool’ (i.e. ‘one who wears woollen clothes’) a term denoting a practitioner of Sufism. — Note: Since Somalis traditionally do not have hereditary surnames this name was in most cases registered as such only after immigration of its bearers to the US.
