Yea. Me and my friend are arguing about naming her baby after a star trek character, after she made the gaffe of giving it a muslim name. I will leave the names out to protect the innocent. (me) (from her)

Surely if she didn't know it was a name Muslim parents gave their children then other people wouldn't know either? I might just be reading it wrong (I don't know the name after all) but it hardly sounds like a gaffe to me. I know a couple of white women called Aisha. That's an acceptable Muslim name.
