History & Origin

Muhammadyunus pairs Muhammad, the name of the Prophet of Islam, with Yunus, the Arabic form of Jonah — the prophet swallowed by the great fish in both Quranic and biblical accounts. Compound naming of this kind is widespread among Muslim families; U.S. registries record the pair as one word (said 'moo-ham-mud-YOO-nus').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, reverent, and story-rich.

Did you know? Yunus is the Arabic name of Jonah, and it titles the tenth chapter of the Quran. Paired with the Prophet's own name, the compound sets two honoured names side by side (said 'moo-ham-mud-YOO-nus').
