It does cause problems having a common name. Being called Mark I quite often have someone else called Mark around too! But of course people tend to call each other by their first names!
I remember in school they other Mark was the one which was a right worky ticket, so the teacher was always shouting 'Mark!', so much that I generally assumed she was talking to the other Mark, so didn't notice when she was referring to me!
Of course having an unusual name can cause problems too, a friends little girl 'Terry-Anne' got really upset because she couldn't buy a cup with her name on it from the shop!
I think girls are probably easier to name than boys, I can think of tonnes of potential girls names but for boys it's more difficult as you can't get away with a 'pretty' name for them :p
It's not a huge surprise as at least 95% of Muslim males I know in university have Mohammed as their first name. Most however are referred to by their second/third name.
