History & Origin
Mohamedali joins Mohamed — from Arabic Muhammad, 'praiseworthy', the name of the Prophet — with Ali, 'exalted; noble', the name of the Prophet's cousin and son-in-law. Pairing Muhammad with a second name is a widespread and reverent practice in Muslim families across the world, and the compound written as one word is common in official records. We note the honor these names carry (said 'moh-hah-med-AH-lee').
It appears rarely in the U.S., mostly in Muslim families. Rare, honored, and double-rooted.
