No, it isn't.  The more common term now is CE for Common Era.

AD is an abbreviation for the bastardized Latin "Anno Domini" or "In the Year of Our Lord". It represents the arbitrary point chosen well after the fact to hammer the Julian and Gregorian calendars together. Estimates as to what would have been the actual date of the birth of Jesus vary widely.

Correct.

 

NB was correct about the Romans being in Israel in BCE, as others have also pointed out.
