In all the world, بشر (بشر , Beshr , Bishr ) is a common epicene first name. The forename بشر is habitual in Syria, where it is quite a common predominantly boy's, but very seldom girly name, Iraq, where it is quite a rare principally boy's, but scarcely feminine name, and Sudan. Measured by absolute frequency, it is the most numerous in Iraq, Egypt, and Sudan. Likewise, بشر is the last name as well as the forename.
