Yes it’s a Moroccan and a pretty skinny one at that.
Never mix species.

I agree the head/body size ratio seems a little out in the last pic. Looks like he needs a few good meals

Never mix species. Besides, uromastyx are solitary animals and it is very hard to introduce them, especially after about a year old. Yours is already thin, an adult, and adding the stress of a female would only make him worse. Females (like in humans), can be very aggressive!! And aggression is not always apparent until one uro is beyond help and dies. Each needs a separate enclosure, and probably cover the sides where they cannot see each other. They don’t tend to like each other!!
