I related to your initial remarks, because I know many younger children and youth, including my own son.... When we Muslims name our children, we try to pick beautiful names, names that have meaning, but recently I started observing a trend among Muslim youth to be shy or ashamed about their names because their peers cannot pronounce them because they're different. As a result, their peers bully them. Their peers make fun of their names, so they choose some nicknames that are easier to pronounce so they can be accepted by their peers.
It's damaging not only to youth self-esteem, but also for all their families and communities.
