Explanation
Al-Wahhab describes Allah’s free giving without need of return. In a Sunni Hanafi-compatible framing, this is understood in a manner befitting Allah, without likeness to creation.
Dua usage
In supplication, this name especially fits when asking for unexpected gifts, generosity of heart, and protection from stinginess.
Reflection
The practical lesson is this: gifted blessings should make you grateful and generous, not entitled.
Source note
Source frame for Al-Wahhab: Qur’an 7:180 permits calling upon Allah by His beautiful names; the ninety-nine framework is established in Bukhari/Muslim without limiting Allah’s names to that number.
