a name that can not be mistaken for someone else.
So peter could be named after anyone, but Mohammed (or whatever the correct
spelling is), is likely to be named after a famous religious person.
Would that be Mohammed Ali the boxer? or Maybe Mohammed Ali the former king of Egypt? Maybe Mohammed Khatemi President of Iran, or Mohammed Reza Shah the ex-monarch? or Mohammed Nazr who plays basketball at the University of Kentucky?
If I
named a agent after mohammed then a normal person would think that i'm doing
it to poke fun at someone's relgion (ie I'm saying that mohammed is a
thief).
A normal Christian Western-European or American perhaps. A normal muslim would see Mohammed (and derivative names like Mahmoud) as quite a bit more common than Peter. (Now, if he were REALLY touchy, he might infer that you thought muslims were thieves, but that is a little more of a stretch.) Anyway, if you were playing Easterlings or Harad, and were using generally Arabic or Islamic names to go with the general feel of those countries, Mohammed would be no better or worse than any other.....
nah, i love a good argument myself.
