Khalifa Ayil Al-Naufli - Name

Name

Khalifa Ayil's full name is Khalifa Ayil Salim Al-Naufli. Although his tribe name being Al-Naufli, he (like many other people in the Arab World) refer to themselves with their father's name (in Khalifa's case, it'd be Ayil) as the name that will follow their first name. Many people in the Western World are not familiar with the naming system in the Arab/Muslim World, and at times it can cause much confusion, resulting in many aliases being used.
