Callum is of Scottish origin, I think, although it seems to be fairly popular throughout the UK now.

The point is there are 3 Muslim names in the top hundred, 1 if you combine them. But it's still a tiny percentage of baby boys being called Mohammed, with all it's spellings.

And if you combine all variants of Mohammed, you should combine all variants of Jack, too. Add in the John's, Jacob's etc (which are all variants) and Mohammed is nowhere near the top name.

Bluto, yes, somewhere west of you.

hmm i think a case of racist  here from the US side of the pond. Belive it or not the UK has always openned it's arms to immagrants from it's collannies and tried to get along with countries that are diffrent.  
Are you saying that ALL muslims are terroists? Would you look at your own millitant Cristian churches , which stock pile arms ready for thier own "holy war" against terror.
I'm starting to feel sorry for the native americans who have to put up with small minded , narrow thinking populas that raped their lands and moved them from thier dwelling areas......

just my 2cents (1.1p)

I try not to correct other folks spelling, as mine is generally atrocious, but spelling "Colonies" as "collannies" begs for a written smack down.

LERN HOW TO SPeLL FOO!

There is a saying ' travel broadens the mind,' I think whilst most americans are commendably patriotic (something we could probably benefit more from) many are sadly xenophobic and this gives rise to some of the rather tedious remarks we have here!


By the way we live in Britain not England, that consists of England, Scotland, N Ireland and Wales. Yes the Northern Irish can vote, yes we drive on the left, we also have electricity, carpets, running water, and don't have yellow teeth!

'Yeah Baby!'

But apparently you (plural) can not spell travel.

You invented the language... learn how to spell!

That did piss on my bonfire somewhat! Shall I begin with how many English words you guys cannot spell!!:aok

Besides a language does not stand still otherwise it dies, look at the difference between our English and yours, same language but sooo many different words and meanings - so what the hell spell it however you like:D

P.S. I typed that message at 530am man give me a break!
