This weekend I saw "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the theater. It's a very entertaining movie, though some of the criticisms it has received are valid (final quarter of the movie isn't as strong as it could be). But in the beginning there's some tension between Freddie and his father due to Freddie rebelling against his background, e.g. going by Freddie instead of his real, Parsi name: Farrokh Bulsara (among many other things).

Today, that got me thinking about names on these boards. Likely because most of us post from Western countries, there's definitely a Western bias in the names posted on here, in Top 10 threads and elsewhere. So, semi-inspired by "Bohemian Rhapsody," I wanted to make a post where we look a little further east.

So, everybody, post your favorite Persian / Arabic names!
