Muhammad the most popular name in the UK

So, in the UK, since 2014, (so this is old news, but I found this out recently), Muhammad is the most popular name. This is because the amount of Muslims in the UK has increased greatly in recent times. This also shows the traditionally Christian culture of the UK being put on the spot, being challenged by Islamic culture. In the world, Islam is also on the rise on a bigger scale.

So NSG, is it a good, bad or weird thing that Mohammad is now the most popular name in the UK? Is it a sign of Christian culture's demise in the UK?

My opinion:
In my mind, being a citizen of the UK, but not living there (so it has no bearing on me), this is odd. The UK has been one of the greatest Christian nations to have ever existed in terms of power and influence, and it has historically had a national church. While losing their colonial interests around the world, large amounts of immigration from Islamic countries mainly have been going into the UK, changing the demographics greatly. This is something that is in my mind not a good thing. A nation has the right to take in immigrants, and should generally do so, however, a nation is also something that should preserve its culture, and it would seem that having such a drastic demographic change is not a good thing, it will not bring stability, and it will not bring peace.

The alternate spellings of Muhammad were included; that might have bumped up the numbers.

All this shows is non-Muslims are being a bit more varied in their choice of names then Muslims. Imagine for a moment if Christians used the name John in the same proportions...

Why is the Guardian shaming for Muhamed being the most popular name in the UK?

Go back to VICE News where you came from. Less Christian is good? And more muslim is good?! Move to Lebanon, see how less Christian has worked.

Or, alternatively, British people are just a lot more varied in their choice of names. Show me a name British natives use in anything close to the same proportions Muslims choose the name Mohammed.

It's already very not Christian, as a lot of people who identify as Christian or Catholic do it due for cultural reasons rather then religious. it also has a very high percentage of non-religious people at something between 30-50%.

No. Not really. British culture is alive and well. All this naming business shows is that there are a ton of Muslims named Mohammed. It does not necessarily imply that British culture is being destroyed.

Newsflash.

Everyone you've ever known, met, and loved is already dead.

We're already dead!

2077 has come, and the ashes of nuclear holocaust have killed us all. We are just remnants of our memories living a lie in a false world since Heaven, and Hell have been atomized with us. Our souls have nowhere to go so we stare living a lie not realizing our world was lost so long ago.
