Yes, they are.

Mohammed only is the no1 name if you include every possible variant. Something you can do with any non-muslim name as well. It was a stupid non-story.

There are 62million people in the UK. 95% of them NOT Muslim. Does anyone think a nation with 5% Muslims would have a Muslim name as the fav for newborns?. Common sense.

Mohammed (no matter how it is spelled) is the most common male name in the entire world. Think about it.
