Re: Can you use "Erin" for an Arab American girl?
in reply to a message by Jason Malcolm
Yeah, I actually went to school with a Pakistani immigrant named Erin. Apparently some of her family had already visited America by the time she was born, which was how she got her name. I realize that Pakistani does not equal Arab, but a girl from either background would probably be Muslim...yeah, it's totally plausible for your character to be named Erin. Unusual, but plausible.
