Let's see. I can come up with the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts, Simon the Cyrene, and maybe the Queen of Sheba. (Obviously none of their birthplaces are definitively known.)

Born in South Asia?

If yes, free guess: Buddha/Siddhartha Gautama

If they are, which is unlikely, the name is not used. So no

That's Hamilcar Barca. According to Wikipedia Barca meaning "lightning" was both a title given to Hamilcar for the swiftness of his attacks, and a name for his family. I'll amend my guess to Hannibal son of Hamilcar Barca because Wiki says people rarely call him Hannibal Barca.

I'm silly. Sorry about that.

Hannibal Barca is correct, great guess Dream!

Probably the most feared general of all time, Hannibal was so revered in his reign of terror that Rome would later erect statues of him to celebrate the glory of fighting such a glorious leader. The phrase "Hannibal at the gates!" Is still used to announce an extreme or dangerous situation. (Often humorously)
