Meaning of name[edit]

The irony here is that her last name Namazie literally means "(one who) prays". I'll try to find sources about her family background. Khorshid 03:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Christopher Hitchens' first name is also nicely inapplicable like that. Or Daniel Dennett for that matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.139.81.0 (talk) 07:00, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request for Comments[edit]

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.

The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

Please help us determine consensus on this issue. --Guy Macon (talk) 18:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

New blog URL[edit]

She moved her blog from freethoughtblogs to http://maryamnamazie.com/news/ . Unfortunately her old posts seem to be unavailable, the last post is archived here: https://web-beta.archive.org/web/20160707035232/http://freethoughtblogs.com/maryamnamazie/2016/05/28/my-blog-moving-to-my-website/

Personal life[edit]

Shouldn’t we add her personal life? I recently listened to a podcast hosted by Lawrence Krauss with Maryam Namazie where she said she had a son Nlivataye (talk) 07:25, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
