ulubatli,

I couldn't help but reply to your observation of most common Turkish name, which I would guess to be right...

Most of the men in my family gets to be named Mehmet, and it's a tradition of ours for about 2 centuries now. Although it is not our surname, we have come to be known as the Memolar Family in our region for that reason. Things get complicated sometimes, and you always have to explicitly specify who you are talking about, but I think this is just a nice feature of ours.
