Almas - Diamond
Ahlam - Gold
Renee - Reborn
Cassandra - She who entangles men
Joseph - God will give more
Kanzah - Treasure
Matrah - Rain
Jeunesse -Youth/Youthful
Zeenat - Adornment
Aaron - Exalted
Salsabeel - Nectar
Lailah - Night
Anjum - Stars
Qamr - Moon
Turaab - Soil
Espirit - Eeeks, I forgot the meaning?!
Eilaf - Love (EE-LAAF)
Jahan Ara - Advisor of the Universe (JAA-HUH AA-RAA)
Hayah - Life

Good luck! I've kept some to myself, they're too special :P

Spellings of Arabic and/or other language names differ since script-to-script translation is sometimes not possible. The reason i didn't post these sites was that instead of searching, one could easily screen out the nice ones.

Them being nice is strictly a matter of opinion, wouldn't you agree?

ah, this'll be useful, I've got a society based off of the middle east, and so far the only name I could come up with were random letters that sound vaguely right and the name Scheherezade. (which, yaknow, is blatantly stolen)

Them being nice is strictly a matter of opinion, wouldn't you agree? One list once gave me the name "Elga" it apparently means Elf Spear or something, but I can only see large forearmed German nannies...

The German nannies frighten me...
