Answer 2

Dunia and Nisair will be hard to pronounce for most non middle eastern people. I'm personally not fond of Ikram or Kamile.

Here are some more suggestions:

Girls:

Aaliyah - high exalted, to ascend

Annissa - charming, gracious

Farah - happiness

Rana - beautiful to gaze upon

Shakira - thankful

Boys:

Samir - entertaining companion

Aayan - God's gift

Amir - prince, prosperous

Eshan - in God's grace

Ilyas - Prophet's name

Nasir - protector

Unisex:

Iman - faith

All the best and good luck

Answer 4

There are so many beautiful Arabic girls names... more so than boys, in my opinion. So if it's Arabic you want, you'll have a difficult decision ahead of you.

I think we're going to name our future little Arab baby Laila.

I am also in love with Samara, but it doesn't work with our last name... maybe it does with yours.

Some other favorites:

Adara

Aisha

Amara

Amina

Amira

Nadia

Rihana

Sadira (you can call her Sadie!)

Sahara

Samira

Tamara

Yasmin

Zahra

Good luck!
