Mutaz is an Arab name of Semitic origin, meaning 'elevated' or 'exalted'. It is derived from the root verb 'w-t-z', which signifies elevation in rank or status. The name Mutaz is often used by Muslims and Christians alike, though it has traditionally been more prevalent among Arabs. Its usage can be traced back to early Islamic history, with notable figures like Mutaz ibn Abu Sufyan, a companion of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad.
