Arabic and Germanic toponyms in the Iberian peninsula

[Sacrificed Ram]

I think these Arabian oryx would feel homey there:

treasured symbol of the Arabian desert.

Oryx was offered as cattle for Brazil, but their domestication was never well successful.

[Rethel]

I'm curious about the incidence of Celtic toponyms too

Celtic are obvious. More interesting would be slavic

[Óttar]

Names that begin with Guadal- come from Arabic Wadi "river." I am reading Historia De La Lengua Espanhola in Spanish.

[Al-Meksiki]

Celtic are obvious. More interesting would be slavic

Would there be Slavic toponyms? Would the Saqaliba had a strong enough effect?

Idk, this is why it is interesting.
One Slav created even a kingdom there, so who knows...

Guad-
Quat- (Cat-)
Al-

all prefixed of arabian names

[Longobarda]

Would there be Slavic toponyms? Would the Saqaliba had a strong enough effect?

How are better known the "saqaliba" in spanish history? I've never heard mention them by spaniards. I suppose that the "saqaliba" refer to saka or scythians. I've a personal theory on iberi for example

Correct. Over the list (which is much longer than this) it says:

This is a list of traditional Arabic place names. This list includes:
Places involved in the history of the Arab world and the Arabic names given to them.
Places whose official names include an Arabic form.
Places whose names originate from the Arabic language.
