In all the world, Himayat (Himayat 
) is quite a common predominantly masculine, but scarcely female forename. The forename Himayat is characteristic of Pakistan, where it is quite a rare primarily masculine, but scarcely feminine name, United Arab Emirates, where it is a rare masculine name, and Saudi Arabia. In absolute terms, it is the most numerous in Pakistan, India, and Saudi Arabia. Very seldom, Himayat is the last name as well as the forename.
