        This is an English Speaking site. Very few people would know what to call you as most do not speak Arabic. (Quite a few struggle with English, but that is a whole other can of Americans worms).

                ER.. Yes. How many people in the world speak English? Answer: Most. Whereas Arabic is spoken only in North Africa and the ME. In terms of absolute numbers, English is the most spoken language in the world. (Granted, not as a mother tongue, but in terms of number of individuals who can speak English to some extent).

                      I'll play, which two dots. Also, if you were an actual Arab, you'd know why teh spelling has two variations.

                            I would certainly agree that it would be no more than 100% and probably not much less.

                              It's because of the . (dot) you put in. As the rules of Arabic are differ from English concerning punctuation, it mess up Google's mind...

                              I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

                                          And the "best answer" is wrong. Last name is not always based on father's family name. Why should a single mother choose to name her child after someone else's family? This also completely fails to take into account such customs as the Icelandic habit of using patronymic or matronymic naming - so that the last name takes the first name of the parent and adds Son or Dottir to become the new last name.
