The name may be abbreviated to ''Md.'', ''Mohd.'', ''Muhd.'', ''Mhd.'', or simply ''M.'' because of its utmost meaning, its popularity has meant that it can become hard to distinguish people when there is a multitude with the same name. In some cases it may be to keep a personal name less tied to a religious context. This is only done if the person has a second given name.
