    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 393/33/B=1433) Zishanul Haque is not a correct name. Only Zishan is correct. It means magnificent. It is also not a good name; it bears the reflection of praise and pride. Instead, if you keep any other name like Burhan, Arman, Farman, etc then it is better.

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
