"عَنْ أَبِى بَكْرِ بْنِ عُثمَانَ بْنِ آلِ يَرْبُوعٍ قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَعيدِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو العَدَوىِّ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ، وَكانَ اسْمُهُ مُوسَى، فَسَمَّاهُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ، فَثَبَتَ اسْمُهُ إِلَى اليَوْم، وَذَلِكَ حِينَ أَرَادَ عُمَرُ أَنْ يُغيرَ اسْمَ مَنْ تَسَمَّى بأَسْمَاءِ الأَنْبِيَاءِ".

“From Abu Bakr ibn 'Uthman ibn Al Yarbu', who said: 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Sa'id ibn Zayd ibn 'Amr al-'Adawi entered upon 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, and his name was Musa, so he named him 'Abd al-Rahman, and his name remained so until today. That was when 'Umar wanted to change the name of those who named themselves after the names of the Prophets.”
