Kingdom of Araba → Kingdom of Hatra – Per WP:COMMONNAME. Looking at the sources we have about the Kingdom of Araba, the word 'Araba' is never used to refer to the kingdom. Instead, 'Hatra' is used.

Some examples:

Frontiers in the Roman World: Proceedings of the Ninth Workshop of the International Network Impact of Empire (Durham, 16-19 April 2009)

The Middle East Under Rome

Hatra and the Parthian Commonwealth

The Cambridge Ancient History: Volume 12, The Crisis of Empire, AD 193-337

Aramaic Graffiti from Hatra: A Study Based on the Archive of the Missione Archeologica Italiana

Between Rome and Persia: The Middle Euphrates, Mesopotamia and Palmyra Under Roman Control
