"Variant of Abdullah"
The name Abdoulaye is commonly a male name from the "Arabic" origin.
Abdoulaye is the West African French spelling of the Arabic name Abdullah, also written Abd Allah. It is the usual form in Senegal, Mali, Guinea and other French-speaking parts of the region, where French orthography renders the long vowels as ou and ay and drops the final h. The Arabic elements are abd, servant, and Allah, God, so the name is conventionally translated as servant of God.
Abdullah means "Servant of Allah.".
The pronunciation of Abdoulaye is ab-doo-LAH-yay.
