I like Danyl/Dannyl

Ash/Ashley.. Ali/Ally.. Faris...Hassan..Jamal/Jamaal/Jameel...Natheer..Nadeem..

Some of them are more Muslim sounding than others, but could you compromise? Eg Jamie instead of Jameel or something like that? Find a Muslim name you like and play with it a bit until it sounds good to both of you?
