Muhammed
Muhammed is a spelling variant of Muhammad, the most common male given name in the world.
It refers primarily to the founder of Islam (c. 570–632 CE), considered by Muslims to be the final prophet of God.
The name, meaning "praised" in Arabic, remains popular among Muslim families: Their son Muhammed was born last spring.
Spellings vary widely in English transliteration—Muhammad, Mohammed, Mohamed—all representing the same Arabic name.
