I like this and how African Americans are returning to Muslim names of their Ancestors:
Arabic names do not necessarily make one a Muslim, at least not in the Maghreb or Levant
where Arabs are Christians and Jews too.
But it was the spread of Islam that brought Arabic names to West Africa.
So these African and Afro-American Aminas and Akbars
or at least their parents or grandparents, were almost surely Muslims.
