There are no guarantees, but I've known people with these names, and most people seem to get the pronunciation right away.

I'm not familiar with true Arabic pronunciations, but I think that many Arabic names are fairly simple to pronounce in English. Are you looking for masculine or feminine names, or both? I'd be happy to suggest ones with English familiarity or just ones I find easy to pronounce.
Some that come to mind right now are Amani, Nadia, Raja, Malik, Alia, etc. Let me know how I can help further.
