    Apropos of nothing: I watched the movie Inception last night. There was a character named Yusuf. Is that like "Joe" in Bosnian? ;)

    It's not Bosnian. It's Arabic. It is like Joseph. My brother's name is Yusuf.

    It means:

    "Allah increases in piety, power and influence."

    This may be crazy, but is it possible that Jusuf is a name both in Bosnian and Arabic?

    Yeah the character in the movie, if you haven't seen it, is north African. It just jumped out at me because, you know, Nurk! :)
