So far I have عائشة, but this has no diacritics, unfortunately.
Explanations in English, please, except for Arabic script examples!

You are right. The TAA’ MARBUUTA in names should not get a SUKUN. However, two conditions need to be differentiated when it comes to pronouncing this letter:
(a) If you stop at the name, because it comes at the end of a sentence for example, you need to pronounce the TAA’ MARBUUTA as a /h/ sound with SUKUN, although the SUKUN should not be written; and
(b) When the name is in the middle of a sentence, the TAA’ MARBUUTA is pronounced as a normal TAA’ plus the appropriate final inflectional vowel.
