Once a great man said 

What's in a name 

And everyone agreed 

Without opposing him 

I rather feel it's too late to defend 

But I'll surely put forward a rebuttal 

 

Although I ain't any great person myself 

And I stand no where before that literary king 

But I do feel his statement was taken too literally 

For its all surely in a name 

Imagine your life without any name, quite confusing 

Or think if you had multiple names and identities, what's your real you? 

 

It's all in a name 

If it wouldn't be in a name 

Just because you are Khan, Muhammad or Ahmad 

You wouldn't be tagged differently and treated badly 

It's all in a name else why would Elizabeth the Queen received a farewell world widely 

Whereas Elizabeth the nothing although a scientist and pilot aren't treated more than their respective identity 

It's all surely in a name else all the great men are treated with respect 

Be it Abraham, Moses, Churchill, Stanley or Einstein the great 

But Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam isn't respected by many 

It's all in a name that's why we have our passports, IDs and licenses

If it wouldn't be in the name then even Tom, Nick and Harry would be treated all the same 

 

It's all in the name that we take so much pride in 

For what we are named, reflects in our personality the same 

A man named Napoleon and Hitler can't be seen ever again 

Whereas you can find Elizabeth, Phillips, Ahmed, Moses in every generation 

 

Name has a deep impact on a person's life 

If named differently he would be a different kind of person

If you don't believe my words you can do some research 

Your conclusions won't be any different than mine 

For truly it's all in a name and forever will be
