LONDON (AFP) - – Mohammed was the most popular name for newborn baby boys in England and Wales in 2009, according to official data released Wednesday.

But 12 different spellings of the name, each listed separately, meant that Oliver officially topped poll.

The name, given to 7,364 children, ended Jack's 14-year reign at number one, with Harry, Alfie and Joshua rounding out the top five in the figures published by the Office for National Statistics.

The two most common spellings of the Muslim name came in at 16th and 36th place, a total of 7,549 baby boys, making it the most popular name overall.

So many Muslims name their son after The Perfect Man For Eternity, proportionally speaking the name is so common.

The reason is because Muhammad is so massively popular amongst Muslims. I mean, I know a family where all the males are called Muhammad!

In north Africa too it's number one.

And in Saudi Arabia, when you address some one you don't his name (males of course), you call them Mohamed. It's just like addressing some one with the title "Mr", it's that common!

Well then when some shouts on London roads the word "Muhammad"., then there will 100 faces looking at the shouter., better thing to do is Make Muhammad as "M" and name the kids as M1..M2.. M3...

that solves the problem of London.. I wonder about Girl name? Is it Aisha??

Lol yeah. After I apostasized whenever someone called me "Ya Mohammad" I found it really ironic.

The readers must realize that Names like these including "Muhammad" have very little do to with Islam but they are Arabian Pagan names even before the birth of Muhammad..

Quote
Abdullah,
Muhammad,
Amina,
Aisha,
Abu Dharr al-Ghifari,
Zainab,
Zaid,
Umayr ibn Sad al-Ansari, truth.
Abbad ibn Bishr
Barakah
Khadijah (ra)
Abdullah ibn Hudhafah as-Sahmi
Abdur-Rahman Ibn Awl
Utbah ibn Ghazwan
Abu-d Dardaa
Fatima bint Muhammad
Rumaysa bint Milhan (Umm Sulaym)
Jafar ibn Abi Talib
Abu Hurayrah
Adiyy ibn Hatim
Abdullah ibn Umm Maktu
Ubayy ibn Kab
Aisha bint Abi Bakr
Abu Musa al-Ashari
Umayr ibn Wahb
Umm Salamah
Abdullah ibn Abbas
Habib ibn Zayd al-Ansari

So, Islam is nothing but enhancing Arabian Pagan genealogy that is closely related to Muhammad and his clan along with a Mambo-jumbo manual that is created by some Arab writers of that time after the death of Muhammad. In modern times Islam has become Arab Imperialism with the rules that were prescribed by Muhammad to that 7th century Arab Pagan towns around Mecca and Madina along with stupid stuff from Muslim Feudal rulers of medieval and modern times..

My dad's first name was Muhammad, but he had it legally changed.

Strangely ironic, that he wouldn't want to be named after the holy prophet, when he's vehemently religious.

But I guess it had to do with his paranoia, and his excuse for why he couldn't land a good job.

No one calls me it though. It's so prevalent there isn't any risk in disclosing it as an exMuslim I think!

well, Moh seems to be very popular eh(dont understand why). Same can be said about the amount of people named Levy, Cohen, Goldsmith holding onto top positions in Prodominately Christian Countries.

I am sure there are many agnostics named Moh out there.

If you name your child Mohammed, then he will go to heaven no matter how sinful he is - apparently that is what my cousins say.

It should be Sikunder., believe it or not that is MY ORIGINAL NAME tut. Still many my mother side call me with that name lol..

Any ways if it is a girl it will be Sunny Or Sitara., and if it is boy the name will be ISKANDAR .. ALEXANDER. Or SIRIUS.

But..but dear King., how about if the kid is like you .. neither a boy nor a girl?? ...
