What I don't understand is why some are duplicates or are made redundant by others. I mentioned other previously, but you also have Al-Hadi (the guide) which is basically the same as Ar-Rashid (The Guide to the Right Path).

I pick one at random I'm not sure how that Quran verse relates to that name (this the only verse that related to A-Fattah):
Al-Fattah is supposedly supported by (only) Quran 34:26
"Say: "Our Lord will gather us together and will in the end decide the matter between us (and you) in truth and justice: and He is the one to decide, the One Who knows all.""
Where in that verse is the name of Allah? I don't see any names there. Shouldn't it say "The Victory Giver". Am I missing something?
I also notice name Al-Wahhab and I think that's curious. So Abdul Wahaab is named after one of the names of Allah?
Quote: In Saudi Arabia, you can't believe the amounts of money the natives pay for certain "blessed,knowledgabla sheikhs" who work as "demon busters" and fight "black magic". Sunnah are so messed up indeed; all Muslims are TBH xD
It's like people and their fortune tellers. The supposed psychic mediums are good at judging behavior and only speak with vague language. They aren't in contact with "spirits".
Parents probably convince their children they are possessed by Jinn if they are too rebellious. Then you have to go and see the crazy Sheikh. e.g.
Parents, church members beat teen to death, injured brother while trying to get them to ‘confess sins’ at N.Y. church: cops
That list is not right; it points to verses which have no mention of the specified name, you also have:
Al-Majid
Al-Wajid
The 99 comes directly from the Hadith:

But the majority of Muslim scholars do believe that the names exceed 99.
Personally, when I pray, the name I call depends on the attribute/quality I want to praise; that's why I stick to what is mentioned in the Quran in terms of names. I can't know why Muslim don't just stick to their holy book in those regards.
Wahhab is in the Quran, it's included about 3 times.
"Abd" means "slaves", so "Abd Allah/Abdullah" means "the slave of Allah", "Abd Al Rahman/Abdulrahman" means "the slave of the merciful"...etc.
Our "Abd Al Wahhab" is called Mohammed; that's his personal name, Abdul Wahhab is his dad, "Mohammed, the son of, Abd Al Wahhab".
Ibn=the son of.
These exorcism stuff just make wonder. Yep, psychological mess is translated as "demon possession", and when people don't agree with you there's always the "dark influence" charge to throw at your enemies.
