At the time of the birth of Imam Ali bin Abi Taleb (as) his father Abu Talib ibn Abdul Muttalib and his cousin, Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw), were out of Makkah, his mother Fatima bint Asad gave him the names of Asad and Haider; when his father Abu Talib ibn Abdul Muttalib returned he called him Zayd. But when Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) came back to the city he gave him the name of Ali, saying that it was the name decreed for him from Allah (SWT).
