Ilkham
The name carries the sense of "inspiration" or divine guidance. Only about 74 men in Poland answer to it, so most people here will never meet one, and no boys have been given it in recent years.

What Ilkham means
Where Ilkham comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
"Ilkham" arrives in Polish records with a Slavic origin and an Arabic association held close beside it. The Arabic word ilham (إلهام) means inspiration, a sense of guidance received as if from above. That meaning, inspiration and divine guidance, is what people attached to the name. No diminutive appears on file, no cross-gender pair. Ilkham stands alone.
A boy named Ilkham meets it first on a class register, printed among more familiar Polish forms. It reads as foreign and settled at the same time.
The short meaning does the real work here. Inspiration is the thing the name states, plainly. Whether a bearer leans Slavic or Arabic in his days, the word behind the name points one way. The Arabic word ilham still means inspiration, and so does Ilkham.
