Does my Lala meet naming conventions?

Why do you mention Arabic? Is that an actual part of the lore? I know Hyur are said to have names similar to Celtic/Germanic names, but I've never heard any mention of Arabic and Lala's. And "riku" sounds about as Japanese as "maru" imo lol

Well, it's not so much about being mistaken as it is a case of subjective opinion, heh. I couldn't think of a better adjective so I went with "arabic", off the top of my head. As pointed out, there's nothing strictly wrong with the "-maru" suffix. But I personally would have tried to get a sound which better conjures up mental images of the desert, and which doesn't appear vaguely Japanese.

I'm not sure how you'd get a Lalafell name that doesn't sound vaguely Japanese, if only from length and the combinations of consonant and vowel to make one syllable.
Zazafin Titifin, I guess, would work at not sounding 'Japanese' and still fit the Dunesfolk naming system, but...
It makes me wonder how many names you could come up with that wouldn't make people think 'Japanese sounding' for Lalafells.
