Barack Hussein Obama?

Forgive me if this has already been said(im not from the USA, I'm british)

Anyway does his name not sound odd as is:

Barack...Sounds like Iraq

Hussein...Okay that's obvious (Sadam)

Obama...Sounds similar to Osama

Update:

lol I don't think that it is any kind of conspiracy theory, I believe that it is 100% coincidence but I am was just surprised by it that's all and wanted other peoples opinions. I believe that he seems to be doing a good job for those of you in the states

    The US has the largest Arabic population in the world outside the middle east, so it WOULD be odd if we didn't have people with arabic sounding names. Remember that President Obama's father was a native african from Eastern Horn area which has a large arabic and muslim influence.

    PS I'm a Republican and I am not a "birther." I have a clearer understanding of the concept of "native born" than most bigmouth talking heads, since I have actually read and understand the Constitution.

    Obama is not my personal choice for President, and if I have my say he'll be a single term President.

    I may not respect the man, but I do respect the office.
