This joke bug was in response to the Comodo hack, which is believed to have been carried out by an Iranian hacker. I imagine the name was intended to be a reference to that person, not just a generic "Arab-sounding name = terrorist" sort of thing. (I know they speak Persian, not Arabic, in Iran, but it looks like the name exists in that language too.)
