The two girls’ names have been among the most popular of 2014, according to website BabyCentre.
The data shows a surge in Arabic names in the UK this year, with Omar, Ali and Ibrahim all entering the boys’ top 100 for the first time, the Daily Mail reports.
For girls, Maryam has shot up 59 places to number 35, while Nur is a new entry in the girls’ top 100, jumping straight to number 29.
And Muhammad has risen an astonishing 27 places compared to last year to claim the number-one spot for boys.
