Best Answer

Long or short names have nothing to do with Islam. That depends upon the custom and tradition of a society. Many Muslims are called: Ali, Bilal, Muhammad. Abdullah. Hassan Ali etc.
In Saudi Arabia the tradition is to add the name of the father and the tribe to which a person belongs. In this name may become longer. Many Christians have also long names.
