The most popular baby names in England and Wales were released last week by the Office for National Statistics. This is a now well-rehearsed routine, whereby the authorities pretend to be surprised that Muhammad is the most common boys’ name in Britain. Of course, this has been the case for at least a decade – it’s just that the spelling variants allow for a degree of insincerity, as I have been saying for the past few years:
“Even accounting for the 14 spelling variants, Muhammad is the most popular UK baby’s name, followed closely by his first cousins Muhammad, Mohammed, Mohammad, Muhammed, Mohamed, Mohamad, Muhamad, Muhamed, Mohamud, Mohummad, Mohummed, Mouhamed, Mohammod, and Mouhamad.”
According to 2024’s figures, 11 of the top 100 boys’ names are now Muslim. Muhammad, Mohammed and Mohammad come in at 1st, 21st and 53rd rank respectively, and are closely followed by Yusuf, Muse, Ibrahim, Yahya, Zayn, Syed, Zion and Zayne. The girls aren’t doing quite so well, but then it’s traditional in Islam for the ladies to lag a few paces behind the men. Still, Ayla, Zara, and Raya are making their presence felt in the maternity wards as well as the burka retailers.
What I find particularly curious about the reporting, is the media’s abject incuriosity as to either the explanation for such data, or indeed the direction of travel it might indicate. For instance, in this year’s BBC commentary the most consequential comment on the break from traditional names was the argument that parents “want more unique names”, and “are taking inspiration from the world around them and following their passions”. Yeah, right!
Whatever your view however, it’s self-evident that the prevalence of a name is a snapshot not just of its present popularity, but also its future. One of the most interesting findings was the fact that while there were four ‘Keir’s born in 2023, the name had effectively been wiped out in 2024 – no prizes for guessing why. If only the Prime Minister could engender the same kiss of death unto mass immigration, perhaps expectant mothers would be more sympathetic towards him.
The eradication of ‘Keir’ is, regrettably, the least of the problems facing Britain. Whether White Brits becoming a minority in their own homeland occurs in 2050 or 2063, even conservative projections are now singing from the same hymn sheet:
- Unless there is a radical change of policy, the share of the UK population that is White British will fall sharply from just over 70 per cent today to below 34 per cent by the year 2100.
- Whites will be a minority in the country in 2063, just 38 years from now. Among the under-40s, the tipping point will come much sooner, in 2050.
- A child born today, will be living in what is close to becoming a White British minority country by the time they turn 25.
- By the year 2100, based on current trends, around six in 10 people in the UK will not have been born in the UK, or born to UK-born parents.
- By the year 2100, our immediate descendants will be living in a country in which the White British will only comprise one third of the population; people with long and strong roots in this country will only represent around four in every 10 people, down from eight in 10 today.
- Somewhere between one fifth and one third of all people will follow the Islamic faith.
The official UK Muslim population is still relatively low at 6.5%, but this does not take into account the overrepresentation of the young. With nearly half of British Muslims under the age of 25, what we are quite likely witnessing are the early stages of a Muslim-majority Britain, where the White population is beyond the point of no return, but has not yet managed to die out – a dead man walking, if you will. If it is indeed the case, that Britain has an unavoidably Muslim future, then perhaps it’s worth considering exactly what sort of Britain that will be?
Here, in no particular order, are (for my money) the most concerning statistics regarding British Muslims:
- Muslims are the principle terror threat to Britain.
- Only 51% of British Muslims are born here.
- Pakistani Muslims are vastly over-represented in child sexual abuse.
- Despite comprising only 6.5% of the UK population, British Muslims account for 18% of prisoners.
- Only 1 in 5 British Muslims is in full-time employment (compared with over 1 in 3 of the overall population).
- Thanks to first-cousin marriage, British Muslims suffer double the rate of birth defects compared to the overall population.
- Almost 27% of British Muslims live in social housing.
- 43% of British Muslims support the introduction of Sharia Law, with just 22% opposed.
- Almost half of British Muslims say Jews have too much power over UK government policy.
- Only 1 in 4 British Muslims believe Hamas committed murder and rape in Israel on October 7th.
- Only 24% of British Muslims have a negative view of Hamas.
- 52% want to make it illegal to show a picture of the Prophet Mohammed.
- 57% want compulsory use of Halal food in all schools and hospitals.
- Only 34% of British Muslims would inform the police if they thought somebody they knew was getting involved with terrorism.
- 4% sympathise with people who take part in suicide bombings.
- 52% do not believe that homosexuality should be legal in Britain.
Naturally, the multicultural apologists will scream that this is alarmist nonsense – but I’m simply giving you the facts. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the caliphate as they say, and the names they give their children matter. Let me leave you with a sobering thought: the name most increased in popularity in Britain last year was Yahya. For the uninitiated such as myself, that’s the name of the architect of the October 7 massacre – a name 583 sets of parents could not resist bestowing on their sons. That is now the 93rd most popular boys’ name – not in Gaza, but in Britain.
You reap what you sow.
