Forename
المعتصم
Around the world, المعتصم (المعتصم 
, Mutassim 
) is a common predominantly boy's, but scarcely female forename. The given name المعتصم is characteristic of Libya, where it is quite a common primarily masculine, but very infrequently girly name, Oman, where it is quite a common male name, and Syria, where it is quite a rare principally boy's, but very infrequently girly name. Measured by absolute frequency, the name is most common in Northern Africa, particularly Egypt, Libya, and Algeria. Much less frequently, المعتصم is the last name as well as the forename.
