The answer

The name "Muti'ullah" (Obedient to Allah) is permissible because it is a good name with no prohibitions, and there is no report that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was named by it. Wiping over socks is permissible, and the view of the majority of scholars is that washing the feet is better, while the Hanbalis consider wiping to be better since it is a concession.
