    Yes, it’s Arabic originally. We use it as “Murat” in Turkish.

    A majority of Mizrahis use Arab names. The rest have either always had Hebrew names like Cohen, Levy, etc or Hebraized them when they came to Israel.

    Yeah, I don't know if I'd the say the vast majority but the majority look South European-ish I guess (small minority Central/Eastern European). Usually it's a kind of ambiguous Ashkenazi specific look. Some look very Mid-eastern though as you said like Sacha Baron Cohen who is a full Ashkenazi. His mother's family were German Jews and his father's were Ashkenazis from Wales (doesn't specify what kind).
