The answer

There is no objection to the name "آخر واحد" (Last One) in forums, because this name is not exclusive to Allah, nor is it defined with "alif" and "lam" (the definite article). Furthermore, the name "آخر واحد" is restricted by the word "واحد" (one), whereas Allah's name "الآخر" (The Last) is absolute. The meaning of Allah's name "الآخر" is the One who remains after His creation perishes, and this meaning is exclusive to Allah and is not shared by one who names himself "آخر واحد."
