It being a traditionally Muslim name is no more relevant than if it was a traditionally Christian name, though, my first daughter's first and middle names are biblical but we're both non-religious... Their name says nothing about their current religious status or how strictly they adhere to it. Or they may well be Muslim, but that still says nothing about the mother's motivations for her complaint... It's all pure assumption, based on their name and POSSIBLE cultural background and if that isn't prejudice, then prejudice doesn't exist?

But fair enough Cherie, I'll give to her that she's not easily riled or rattled, however I disagree that the content of a post is automatically A-OK just because it's argued with a level head.
