I love FairuzI've had the combo Antoinette Fairuz in mind for some time. The association is rather unexpected but I think it's not bad. And I think most names on your list could fit a Caucasian girl with no problems.I also like Taous (peacock) and Ibtissem (smile).

I have always liked Nasrin! I know someone named that too. I also like Alia/Alya, Isra, Alina, Zahra (prefer Zara), Ayda (prefer Aida) and Leyla with this spelling only. I like Narin too, but I don't know if that is arabic, iranian, turkish or...

I love Saira.Some of my faves are Roxana and Farrah. I know an American family who has lived in Central Asia for years who named their daughter Shirin.

Alina, Leila, and Lina definitely work for caucasian girls. I've encountered caucasians named Alia as well, so that would work too. I can also imagine Isra, Nadira, Zahra, Anisa, Ayda, Zahra, and Nasrin on caucasian girls as well.My favorites are Isra, Alina, Lina, Nadira, Sahar, Leila, and Zahra.Combos:Isra NadiraLeila Nasrin
Leila SaharLina Firuza / FairuzaAlina SaharAyda Nasrin
Ayda SaharZahra NasrinAzar Nadira
Azar Firuza / FairuzaSaira NasrinAlia / Alya NasrinAnisa Firuza / Fairuza
