Yes. It's the most common Arabic name other than Abdul and Abdullah and Mohammed and Ibrahim and Omar and Hassan etc. It's like John and Paul and Steven and Robert in the Arabic world... this name means HIGHLY PRAISED.. I've met several friendly Muslim guys named Ahmed. One of them is my colleague, another one is my neighbor who is a Jordanian guy of Palestinian descent and another Ahmed is the one whom was introduced by friends... All Ahmeds I've met so far are friendly and sweet men... Sorry, I have to disagree with several comments saying this name is goofy... all I can think of this name is tall and handsome and charming and charismatic Arabic men with good hearts and good sense of humors...
Top 10 most common names globally:1. MARIA 2. NUSHI 3. MOHAMMED 4. JOSE 5. MUHAMMAD 6. MOHAMED 7. WEI 8. MOHAMMAD 9. AHMED 10. YAN.

Anyone being disrespectful to this name should be locked up. This is an amazing name, I know a young boy named this and his mum told me he helps around the house when he’s only 4.

According to Howmanyofme.com, there is one person in the U.S named Ahmed Ahmed.
This name sounds ugly to me, plus it's one of the most overused Arabic names ever. Ask anyone to name an Arabic name and they will most likely say this. Choose something different please.

Ahmed more accurately means 'the praised one or praiseworthy' which is similar to commendable, however someone worthy of praise is of a higher status compared to someone commendable.
