I have a pair of brothers named Ariel and David benEzra. What ethnicity are they? Is there any ambiguity?

Short of naming them Tevye and Hymie Jewy Bar Jewison is there any way I could have made their family origin clearer?

Does anyone see those names, coupled with the phrase "strongly middle eastern features" and think "oh, Arabian, how nice?" Just curious here.

You're right. That's going to be a dominating association.
