Keeping the name Isa Muhammad
Question
I’m going to have a son in June inshallah. My husband and I were researching on naming nomenclature. My husbands name is Mohammed Jaan Qureshi. We are thinking of naming our son - Isa Mohammed Qureshi. Can you please let me now if according to Islamic and Sunnah way, is it appropriate to name my son with this name. First name - Isa, Middle name - Mohammed, Last name as family name - Qureshi.

Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
