Salam alaykum,
Well...I'm wondering if one can name his child with a name like Aaron instead of Haroun, Anne instead of Hanna, Elijah instead of Ilias, Jonah instead of Yunus.
All these name are in the Bible and the Qu'ran.
But I'm afraid that these name may sound Jewish and people can be confused with a person of Jewish or a Christian.
And I heard it's haram to name your child with a name who can lead people to think that he's not muslim.
So what do you think?
