Ofc Mohammed is the most common name but thats a name common within the muslim community. I have noticed the name Sarah in every country, regardless of race or religion. Or it might be an abrahamic religion thing but thats most of the world atleast.

I suspect other Abrahamic names might make the cut.

    Thats a common last name but in just one culture, it’s not universal. Also an english first name but not as common

          There are also a few names that independently exist in different languages; i.e. one is not a translation of the other, such as “Yuri” in Russian and Japanese, or “Naomi” in Hebrew and Japanese. Similarly, the surname “Lee” in English is not related to “Lee” in East Asian languages like Chinese or Korean.
