I've thought about it, and even though I'd personally love a field named after an Arab Muslim, I don't think it should happen, because people have enough problems with Curie

On a broader note, I don't think FIRST can go wrong here. 2/2 or 3/4 of the new fields really should be named after minorities of some kind, but there's more than a dozen good options mentioned here. I'm just excited to see who they pick.
