Kasim is the transliteration of two male given names; (Arabic: قاسم, Kāsim) and (Arabic: قسیم, Kasīm).
The latter name has a diacritic, in the strict transliteration, on the "I", which emphasises the long "I" sound in that name's pronunciation.
Both names are also used as surnames.
The origin of this name comes from the name of the first son of prophet Mohammed.
