I'm slightly biased, as I grew up around a lot of Arabs and have an Arabic name myself.
MALES
Rami is one of my personal faves, after Rami Malek a famous Egyptian American actor
Qays, another good one. Sometimes spelled "Kyce" bc "Qays" might make English tongues mispronounce it to rhyme with "days"
Amin and Hassan = pretty straightforward names
Abbas, Feres, Ghassan = maybe a little hard to pronounce
tbh I'm skeptical about "Iskandar" bc I've never heard of it
FEMALES
I really like Nour, it's a common unisex name & so nice and simple
Zahra is also pretty common, it means flower but if you're going for a floral name Warda (rose) would also work!
Karima, Jamila = pretty straightforward pronounciation
Fairuz, Hadiyya = maybe not
Basma is pronounced "bess(like Tess)-ma" despite the A lol
Bilqis is the Queen of Sheba in Islamic legend, she was awesome, intelligent, great woman 10/10 would use

Rami and Zahra are my favorites out of the names listed. I like the fact that Rami is both Hebrew and Arabic and that Finland and Japan both have similar names. It gives the name an international appeal. In general, I tend to favor Persian names over Arabic, but it varies.
Some Arabic names I like:
Boys:
Amir
Anwar
Aqil
Fikri "intellectual"
Firdaus
Wasi "broad-minded, liberal, learned"
Zain "beauty, grace"
Girls:
Aida
Amira
Zahira
Asra "travel at night"
Dana "wise"
Farah
Nadira

males: Harith, Sabri, Nadir, Omar
females: Aaliyah, Aminah, Lamia, Safiyyah, Farrah, Noor, Raja

Hi !!!
I pronounce it
- the first i like in bit
- the q with enphasis
-the second i lile EE
so... bil-QEES.
I like it because it the name of the Queen of Sheba. She is not only Biblical. She is also a Qurani character.
I'm not Muslim but I study Arabic and its literature. So I read some Suras and Bilqis was in one I read.
I like this character in both religion. It is fascinating

Of the names you listed, I like Farid, Iskandar, Karima, Jamila, Zahra, Muna and Hadiyya.
I like Arabic names as much as I like any others. There are good and bad, and it's all subjective. Unfortunately, as many beautiful Arabic names as there are (and there are a lot), I can seldom justify using one as someone who has little to no connection to Arabic culture.
On my PNL, I have Aminah and Layla.
