Here are some popular Palestinian Arab surnames, and their meaning in English:
al-Masri - the Egyptian al-Mughrabi - the Moroccan al-Djazair - the Algerian al-Yamani - the Yemeni al-Afghani - the Afghan al-Turki - the Turk al-Hindi - the Indian al-Hourani - the Hauranite (from southern Syria) al-Kurdi - the Kurd
I have yet to hear of anyone with the surname "al-Filastini."
