Since the name Ivan will definitely not be used again, let's suggest a replacement. I'll start -

Igor

Ilja (Muromec), Ivanova can will you with details...

Ha, there have not been many arabic names. Let's see (feminine):

Ibtihaj - Joy
Ikram - Honor, hospitality, generosity
Ilham - Intuition
Iman - Faith, belief
Imtithal - Polite obedience
In'am - Kindness, benefaction, bestowal
Inas - Sociability
Inaya - Concern; solicitude
Intisar - Triumph
Izdihar - Flourishing, blooming


Imtithal an In'am should be fine, Intisar and Izdihar sound dangerous. ;-)

it will be a spanish name, since Ivan is a spanish name (pronounced ee-von). The US media Americanized it so they could use Ivan the Terrible

Actually Ivan is the Russian form of John. There is a Spanish form, with an accent over the A, Iván. Maybe you are right, they used the Spanish form.

They did use the spanish version since only English, Spanish, and French names are used.

Definitely Ivana.
She kicked Trump's butt so she is warranted reincarnation of Ivan.
