Legality and restrictions
China
In 2017 legislation made it illegal in China to give children names that the Chinese government deemed to "exaggerate religious fervor”. This prohibition included a ban on naming children Muhammad. The legislation was officially intended to prevent "religious extremism" among the country's Uighur people, Uighur minority, but appears to have been a possible act of Persecution of Muslims#China, persecution against the Uighur community.
Pakistan
The government of Pakistan forbids members of its Ahmadis in Pakistan, Ahmadi community from naming their children Muhammad. Al Jazeera reported in 2021 that Blasphemy in Pakistan, blasphemy charges had been filed against Ahmadis who wrote "Mohammed" on a wedding invitation in an unspecified amount of instances.
