Well here you go it is mohammed http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/baby-names-top-100-most-popular-boys-and-girls-names-10459074.html
But they have obviously ranked it based on precise spelling (i dont think so there are variations of every boys name) like a one letter spelling so as to not worry anyone.
I have got to be honest. This makes me feel slightly worried. I dont know why. I guess it was because of where I grew up I constantly got called *** or slapper if I wore a short skirt.
Anyhow I can still not believe this am I crazy for getting worked up by this kind of thing?

Jack try shreswsbury. However I am in favour of multiculturism its pretty darn good. Just not this segregation of beliefs we see in europe. Anyway I wont have kids so its for yours to sort out. I will still personally carry on what I am doing in fighting for free speech regardless of how politically correct it is or not :) good night
All this proves is that muslims are not very imaginative when it comes to naming boys. Non muslims have a choice of hundreds of names, so the totals per name are more fragmented with no name being hugely more popular than another. Muslims seem to have one name, and the only choice is a variation on spelling that name.
So it does not prove what you think it proves and there are certainly greater things to worry about in the world.

Nobody seems to have mentioned that most children given the name 'Mohammed' on their birth certificates (irrespective of the actual spelling used) aren't actually called by that name.
It's simply a 'courtesy title', indicating their family's faith, which is often abbreviated to 'M' when written down. So someone whose name appears on their birth certificate as Mohammed Mansoor Amna would be called 'Mansoor' by his friends, with correspondence addressed to him as 'M Mansoor Amna'.
It's hardly surprising then that there are a large number of men and boys with 'Mohammed' on their birth certificate. If Christian faiths adopted the same practice (by placing 'Jesus' in front of the names of all boys born into Christian families, such as 'Jesus Fred Bloggs' and 'Jesus John Smith') then 'Jesus' would be near to the top of the list of boys names, despite the fact that those children would actually be known as 'Fred' and 'John' to everyone around them.
