    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 641/641=M/1430)

     

    It is permissible, but it is better to keep with Abd i.e. Abdul Qadeer and Abdul Hameed:

    التسمیۃ باسم یوجد في کتاب اللہ تعالی کالعلي والکبیر والرشید والبدیع جائزۃ الخ (شامي)

    Naming with Abd Muhammad is prohibited; since it might indicate to shirk.

    ویؤخذ من قولہ ولا عبد فلان منع  التسمیۃ بعبد النبي (شامي)

    Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
