The site of the "quartz" that the name of Mohammed is the most used names in England and Wales for newborns, unlike the official statistics in Britain, which does not take into account that this name translated from Arabic written in different ways in Latin.

The announcement of the ranking of names most frequently used in Western countries raises controversy every year. In the United Kingdom, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) recently published in its latest report that Oliver's name is the most recent name given to newborns in 2016 in England and Wales. However, the site "Quartz" American revealed that this statistic is incorrect, and that the most common name is the name of Muhammad.

Mohammed has been in the lead since 2011

Mohammed, who writes in different ways in Latin, ranks 10th on the list of the 10 most popular names in England and Wales, ranking eighth with a total of 3908 births last year, after Harry, George, Jack, Jacob ...

However, given the ranking of the 100 most popular names, Muhammad is also ranked 31 and 68 in a different writing. He has been called a total of 7084 births, well ahead of Oliver (6236), but the differences in writing have not been taken into consideration.

Olivier is "the most popular name for children since 2013," but the figure is not accurate, according to the National Statistical Office. The graph shows that Mohammed's name, with his various writings, is always at the forefront.

The CNN network took into account the five different ways of writing the name of Muhammad in Latin, and concluded that in 2011 and 2012, Muhammad was the most popular name in England and Wales.

Islam is the second most widespread religion in the United Kingdom according to the latest national census published in January 2016. The Muslim population of the Kingdom is about three million, the majority of whom live in England and Wales. Most Muslims call Muhammad their first male child.
