Talking Berber female names

I too am interested in the Berber. I have reason to believe that Berber came to Eastern North America about 1600 with Spanish or Portuguese ships. I think the first names/given names of the females continues to this day in America.
I need help indentifying the names I have in a list as being of Berber or Moor origin. Maybe they are Spanish or Portuguese names from Moor families. I know many of the Moors were Berber.

Is anyone knowledgeable about this Berber history.
