Saybaweyh sounds nice, but some might consider it complicated, consider
cutting it, like "Sayba"

this one is cool, a name that works both ways. you have a famous arabic
name, and a famous translation for it. i.e arabs know tarabulus and some
non-arabs know Tripoli.

btw, i think it would be better to make the project work on Windows and
Linux, i.e maintain a VC project/workspace files and make files. and
maybe you can use xml files (like quran project) instead of a database.
