Since islam strongly opposes other religions, Is there an arabic name(of a human being) that literally translates to the word Christian?

Huh??? I don't know about that , you can look up islamic baby names on google and it will give you some websites to visit and you'll find a list of names...choose letter "C " or " K" , and look at the arabic names that start with that letter , and see which one is closest to the name Christian?

Let's put it this way... Since Muslims believe Mohammed is the true Christ wouldn't anyone who's name means follower of, or disciple of, or my master is, or whatever, Mohammed essentially be translated as "Christian". Or are you hoping there is a Muslim Named Alijah Jesua?
Not that it matters really. Because as different as these two prophets teachings were, their religions have been manipulated to serve the same purpose (to separate you from your brothers). Religion is in your heart not in anything material like a book, or a church. There is another world among and within us always!

Yes, all the time. Duwud is Arabic for David. Ibraham is Arabic for Abraham. Maryam is Arabic for Mary. Ayyub: Job
Dhu'n-nun :Yunus Iilyas: Elijah
Harun: Aaron

Names come from lauguages, Arabic speaking Christians have Arabic names.

The arabic words used for Christ and Jesus are Massih and Isa, respectively. Many Christians have that name, it is very comon.

Muslims usually don't use these names for the mere fact that Christians consider Jesus as God. And by calling yourself Jesus you may be declaring yourself as God, evernthough Muslims don't agree with that. For Christians it will be the case.

However, Muslims use Musa (Moses), Ibrahim (Abraham) and many other names very comonly.

in case you nonetheless believe that Jesus became not a body manifestation of the very author God, the be conscious that formed the worlds made flesh, then you definitely are nonetheless sure in a lack of revelation that is the established denial of the NWT rewrite; and the JW idea equipment. For it isn't and became not the religion of the Apostles nor the plan of the in basic terms residing God. God has laid aside all different names to set forth the Lord Jesus Christ; that at his call all issues in earth decrease than and heaven above might want to and could bow. For the first three hundred years, till faux doctrine defeated the authentic church; Christians were baptized contained in the call of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord being his call less than the call of father; Jesus being his call less than the call of Son; and Christ or Messiah being his call less than the call of the Holy Ghost. Then as now, Jesus lives in his toddlers; who're the believers and the authentic church in this ending hour.
