not really, never met anyone named abe myself. there’s no clean way to westernize your name while retaining some resemblance to the original imo. I’d just do what a lot of south east asian immigrant’s do and choose a generic christian name like John or William and keep your last name

 

[Lorsss]

Abe

He may westernize his name into Abraham rather than the short form Abe

[Gaygymmaxx]

Nobody's been named Abe for decades, just look up American names and find something not too common

Marc is a decent name, and Derek is alpha for obvious reasons

I think that's fraud and uncanny to be known by name that's not yours

Abraham is the most similar english name to Abderrahim

 

[Jhon Smith]

Abraham is the most similar english name yeah but not the same

 

[Jhon Smith]

Yeah but not the same. Do you think my name is a failo in dating even though I'm good looking??

 

[Venomkore]

[alriodai]

Raheem

 

[Ben37]

Abraham maybe.

Or just don't bother about any similarities and go with James, Robert, Matthew, William whatever.

arabic names themselves are super uncanny and banal because there are literally hundreds of given names which literally mean the same thing, "servant of god"

Abderrahim is "servant of the merciful" (i.e. God)
Abdullah is "servant of Allah" (arabic word for God)
Abdulazim is "servant of the mighty"
....

Imagine being named Abderrahim and not changing it in the moment you hit 18
