Origin and meaning of Mohammed
Mohammed is one of the most common Western spellings of the Arabic Muhammad, 'praiseworthy,' from the root ḥamida, 'to praise.' Like the form Muhammad, it points to the Prophet who founded Islam and ranks among the most widespread names in the world. This variant is especially frequent in Europe — notably France, Germany and the United Kingdom — among families of North African and Middle Eastern heritage. A name of strong identity and spiritual meaning.
