Are Arabic loanwords/names that have /ħ/(ح) usually rendered into /x/(כ) when they come into Hebrew or /h/ (ה) ? What would be the best way to spell my name -- is this accurate? חַמזא מֶהמוד or should I use כ ?
Thanks!

I would pick ג'ומנה. ^^jaybee wrote:שלומשלום
A mem at the end of a word turns into a mem sofit.
