I'm sorry, but, I don't buy it. What your proposing is even worse than numerology. Kind of like the proverbial monkeys pounding away on keyboards, or, at least some of them, as many monkeys would prefer one or few sets of keys to all the others. "Altogether desirable" is not a proper name, and the fact that certain names imply certain things proves nothing. We can write this one off, at best, as being a chance coincidence. For instance, is this chance or design (or, neither, but organized behavior of a complex system?):
Likewise, one can find any name one chooses in the Old & New Testaments, if one looks hard enough.
My point was that the bible was translated to English in the midst of a bloody war between Islam & Christianity (the Crusades which started in 1096). Thus, the name "Mohammed" in the Song of Solomon was mistranslated for a purpose: to not give Islam the slightest upper hand over Christianity.
It would be a disaster for the Crusaders if the Prophet they fight his religion was prophesied in the bible.
I don't need to tell you about the amount of twisting to the text of the bible.
As for the name, no, it is a name in Hebrew ! the "IM" after Mohammed is to give the name "magnification", similar to referring to the queen of England as "we, the queen of England". Notice the we !
