Arab/Christian names? Just for your information, this are all HEBREW names, that Christianity and Islam took from the Jews. So be fair enough to mention this. It is not sefficient just to write that those names came from the bable. Most of the names you have mentioned are used by Israelis or Jews around the world.
israeli girl
you are right that`s why we are all brothers.
i am an arab christian myself.
all these names came from the holy bible
God created Adam, then Noah, then Abraham, them Moses, them Jesus, and lastly Mohammad. Jews do not like the idea that the last Prophet is not one from among them and he is an Arab, a rival nation! There is no rivalry in religion. I am Turkish, but believe in an Arabic religion! I also believe in Moses and Jesus, who are not Turks! This is no matter of nationality, as Jews claim! The mistake Jews make is that they wrongly believe that anyone must be Jewish to be a true prophet! Jews also consider themselves different from Nazis, but their acts are similar! Jews are racist, and this is what causes them to lose!
