Interesting! In writing Miriam looks Jewish, but I could see how it sounds like the Muslim Maryam on a playground.

Most Muslims I come across just assume it's the same name. They often tell me that their aunt or mother or sister or daughter is also named Miriam (likely spelled Mariam/Maryam)I find it very sweet.
