How do we introduce people in Arabic?
I know what to say and how to respond when I meet someone or when I am introduced to another person, but what is a polite way to introduce people to one another? In English, I would say for example:
Jane, this is Fred
or
Jane, this is my friend/brother/cousin/father/uncle/husband etc, Fred.
In a formal setting I would use surnames also.
Would a direct translation be suitable?
I'd appreciate some suggestions!!! Please give your responses in فصحى العربية.
Thank you!!!

You should say : hatha هذا
Jane, hatha Fred
or : hatha ṣadīqi (sadiiqi) Fred - This is my friend Fred
Hatha akhi Adel - This is my brother Adel.
For females we use : hāðihi ( hathihi) هذه
Hathihi zamīlati Sarah. This is my colleague Sarah.
You can say the full name too: Hatha sadiiqi Andrew Johnson.
هذي is Fusha word too, it is used nowadays in some dialects, e.g. Saudi dialect.

Hala Natalia. This was somehow my Arabic lesson today : ) So I will tell you from what I learnt. I think you want it in MSA but what I learnt is Saudi dialect however it is not much different from standard Arabic I think.
Jane, Hatha ( هذا) Fred : Jane this is Fred - Hatha is male version to say this is
Fred, hathi (هذي) Jane: Fred, this is Jane - Hathi is female version for this is
Also;
he هو (Huwah) she هي (Heyyah)
So you can say:
Jane, huwah Fred or Fred, heyyah Jane.
Introducing your family members:
for instance: hathi khalty (this is my aunt) :هذي خالتي
to note here: khalty means my aunt and khala is aunt
This is simply what I know so far.
