    In Britain they tend to count the variant spellings as different names - I’ve worked places with so many Mohammeds they went by their middle names.

      Similar thing at my job. US-based, but lots of immigrant engineers in my office and some overseas teams too. No shortage of Mohammads, Mohammeds, and Muhammads, plus a few Mahmouds in there for good measure.
